The NDLEA has intensified raids across Nigeria, arresting a 93-year-old suspect in Abia State and a 69-year-old medical doctor in Ogun State among dozens of others. In Abia, officers recovered 7.7kg of skunk from Pa Friday Ahukanna Chigbu’s home. At Kano airport, operatives nabbed an Ivorian national with 1.49kg of cocaine. In Ogun, Dr. Chudi Daniel Ofomata was arrested with controlled substances. Other operations yielded 34kg of skunk in Ogun, 56.2kg in Imo and 118kg from a couple in Niger State. Borno agents intercepted Rohypnol tablets and codeine syrup, while Lagos and Edo raids stopped large loads of cannabis and codeine-based products. NDLEA Chairman Brig. Gen.
