NDLEA declares drug kingpin, 3 associates wanted, blocks N9.8billion in accounts …Secures forfeiture of multi-billion-naira fuel station, buildings, SUVs, as Marwa vows to disrupt the financial architecture that sustains drug cartels The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has declared a drug kingpin, Nnamuka Kelvin Uchenna (a.k.a Odogwu) and three of his associates: Emmanuella Chinonso Iroka; Nnamuka Ifeanyi Kingsley and Ekechi Franklin Chijioke (a.k.a Ekene Okwunaga) wanted over their involvement in the establishment of a clandestine laboratory, production of methamphetamine and drug money laundering. The suspects were declared wanted based on the order of Justice Iniekenimi Nicholas Oweibo of the Federal High Court, Owerri, Imo state, following an application by NDLEA in suit number FHC/OW/CS/22/2026 filed before the court on 3rd July 2026. This followed the discovery of a methamphetamine producing clandestine laboratory where 18.4 kilograms of the illicit substance and other items were recovered by NDLEA operatives at Isiozi in Umuaka, Njaba local government area of Imo state on 25th February 2026. Investigations later linked the wanted suspects to the meth lab and have since then gone into hiding. Through forensic investigation of the meth syndicate by NDLEA operatives, bank accounts linked to the wanted suspects with a combined balance of Nine Billion, Eight Hundred and Forty Million, Eight Hundred and Seventy Three Thousand, Five Hundred and Sixty Six Naira, Sixty Six Kobo (N9,840,873,566.66) only was frozen while the Agency has secured interim forfeiture orders covering multibillion naira assets owned by members of the syndicate including: a filling station, multi-storey residential buildings and four Sport Utility Vehicles (SUVs) marked RLU 148 AJ; KJA 563 FZ; BWR 249 DY and FST 208 HU. Reacting to the development, Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of NDLEA, Brig. Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa (Rtd), commended the officers and operatives involved in the operation, describing it as a clear demonstration of the Agency's resolve to dismantle drug trafficking networks and disrupt the financial architecture that sustains them. "This latest operation reaffirms our unwavering commitment to tracking down drug kingpins and their collaborators, no matter how sophisticated their network or how long they attempt to evade justice. The discovery of this clandestine methamphetamine laboratory in Njaba, and the subsequent freezing of nearly ten billion naira in illicit funds, alongside the forfeiture of a filling station, multi-storey buildings and four exotic SUVs, sends an unambiguous message that the illegal drug business is no longer a safe haven for criminals seeking to launder their ill-gotten wealth through legitimate enterprises. "I want to assure Nigerians that the Agency will not relent in going after the fleeing suspects and anyone else linked to this syndicate. We will continue to deploy financial and forensic intelligence to trace, freeze and forfeit assets acquired through drug trafficking, just as we will not hesitate to invoke the full weight of the law against fugitives who think they can hide from justice. "I appeal to members of the public with useful information on the whereabouts of the wanted suspects to volunteer such information to the nearest NDLEA office or through our confidential lines, as we remain committed to ridding our communities of the scourge of drug trafficking and its attendant social and economic harm", Marwa stated. Femi Babafemi Director, Media and Advocacy NDLEA Headquarters, Abuja Friday 17th July 2026

𝐕𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐎: 𝐍𝐃𝐋𝐄𝐀 𝐍𝐚𝐛𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐩𝐥𝐞, 𝐒𝐞𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐬 𝐌𝐮𝐥𝐭𝐢-𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐧𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐚 𝐃𝐫𝐮𝐠𝐬 The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has arrested a cocaine cartel led by a couple, Bolanle Lookman Dauda and Olayinka Dauda, in Lagos and Ogun states. The duo were arrested with the assistance of the US Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) on May 25, 2024, at Ibiye, along the Lagos-Badagry expressway, as they attempted to cross the land border to deliver the consignment to Ghana. According to NDLEA's Director, Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, the husband and wife were found with 42 blocks of cocaine weighing 47.5 kilograms. A subsequent raid on their residence in Agbara, Ogun State, uncovered an additional eight blocks of cocaine weighing 10 kilograms, bringing the total seizure to 57.5 kilograms. The statement reads: "A cocaine trafficking cartel headed by a couple: Bolanle Lookman Dauda and Olayinka Toheebat Dauda has been smashed in Lagos and Ogun States by operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, with multi-billion-naira worth of the illicit drug recovered in two major operations following the arrest of the kingpin and his queen in one of the intelligence-led raids. "The duo were arrested on Saturday 25th May 2024 by operatives of a special operation unit in NDLEA with the support of the Drug Enforcement Administration of the United States at Ibiye, along Lagos-Badagry expressway while attempting to cross the land border to deliver the consignment in Ghana. "At the point of their arrest, 42 blocks of the Class A drug weighing 47.5 kilograms were found on them. A swift follow-up operation in their residence at Plot 24/25 OPIC extension, Petedo road, Agbara, Ogun State, led to the recovery of an additional eight blocks of the same drug weighing 10kg, bringing the total weight of the cocaine seized from the couple to 57.5 kilograms. In a related operation, NDLEA operatives also recovered 1,100 ampoules of fentanyl, a lethal synthetic opioid, from two members of a drug trafficking syndicate at the Idumota market in Lagos Island. Additionally, 432 grams of methamphetamine were seized from two individuals in a separate raid on Lagos Island. The statement said, "In another raid by the special operation unit, no fewer than 1,100 ampoules of lethal synthetic opioid, fentanyl, weighing 6.48kg were recovered from a member of a drug trafficking syndicate, 34-year-old Ikeh Stanley Ifeanyi at the popular Idumota market in Lagos Island. "No less than 790 ampoules of the dangerous opioid weighing 5.273kg were equally seized from another member of the fentanyl syndicate, 48-year-old Chieze Ogechukwu Benjamin who was also arrested at Idumota market. Fentanyl, a lethal synthetic opioid, which is 100 times more potent than heroin is currently responsible for over 70% of overdose deaths as well as a major contributor to fatal and nonfatal overdoses in the US. "Two other persons: Olayiwola Aremu Kazeem, 37, and Ogunfowora Taofik Ajibola, 35, were arrested on Lagos Island in a different raid by NDLEA officers with 432 grams of methamphetamine recovered from them. NDLEA operatives at Tincan port in Lagos intercepted a container marked MSMU 7294325 on May 25, containing a Toyota Highlander SUV with 15 parcels of Loud, a synthetic cannabis strain, weighing 7.5kg. The container, which originated from Toronto and passed through Montreal, Canada, was declared to contain three used vehicles, including the Toyota Highlander. However, the hidden drug consignment was discovered and seized by the NDLEA. Credit: X | ndlea_nigeria --- Follow us for more breaking news and videos

NSA Malam Nuhu Ribadu Commends Inter-Agency Efforts in Combating Illegal Drugs and Arms in Nigeria The National Security Adviser (NSA) Malam Nuhu Ribadu, has praised the Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), and the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for their relentless efforts in safeguarding Nigeria’s public health and security. Speaking at the closing session of the Committee for the Destruction of Illegally Imported Pharmaceuticals in Abuja on Tuesday, Malam Ribadu highlighted the successful seizure and destruction of 207 containers of illegal and unregistered drugs as a landmark achievement. Malam Nuhu Ribadu conveyed President Bola Tinubu’s appreciation for the seamless collaboration among the three agencies, which has been instrumental in preventing harmful drugs from reaching vulnerable populations, particularly Nigeria’s youth. “These criminals don’t care about the damage they cause, but you have chosen to stand and fight for the country,” he said, reaffirming the government’s unwavering commitment to eradicating such threats. “We will not relent,” Ribadu added, emphasizing that Nigeria is undergoing a transformation and will no longer tolerate activities that undermine national security and public safety. The NSA also underscored his office’s ongoing partnership with the Nigeria Customs Service in tackling the proliferation of illegal arms and ammunition, a key driver of insecurity, including banditry and terrorism. This collaboration, he noted, is critical to addressing the multifaceted challenges facing the nation. Comptroller-General of Customs, Bashir Adeniyi, described the scale of the drug seizure as necessitating a state of emergency. He stressed the importance of inter-agency cooperation in joint examinations, investigations, and prosecutions, revealing that additional containers of illicit goods had been uncovered with guidance from the Office of the National Security Adviser. “We will remain vigilant to ensure controlled substances don’t fall into the wrong hands,” Adeniyi assured. NAFDAC Director-General, Prof. Moji Adeyeye, expressed gratitude to the NSA for bolstering enforcement efforts, including a significant raid in February involving 1,350 security personnel. She disclosed that 137 truckloads of banned products were destroyed following operations in major markets such as Idumota, Aba, and Onitsha. Similarly, NDLEA Secretary, Mr. Shadrach Haruna, commended the NSA’s coordination, noting that the joint operation alleviated the agency’s burden and facilitated the legal destruction of seized drugs. He added that eliminating these illicit products has contributed to improving the ease of doing business in Nigeria. The coordinated efforts of the NSA, NCS, NAFDAC, and NDLEA reflect a robust strategy to protect Nigeria’s critical infrastructure and public health, ensuring a safer and more secure nation for all.

INSIDE OYO NATIONAL PARK: HOW ILLEGAL MINING HAS TURNED A PROTECTED FOREST INTO A LAWLESS COMMUNITY. As some of you might recall, i did a light report about illegal mining carried out in Old Oyo National Park which is linked to Kwara State as well in 2023. After the report which, I remembered reaching out to Ministry of Mining, a taskforce was established to curtail the activities of the miners, it worked effectively especially at the Oyo state side but it wasn't working effectively in Kwara state. After the killings of 5 National Park personnel by bandits last week, which I broke the news, I carried out an investigation to see the level of compliance at the Old Oyo National Park where lithium mining activity is going, then i discovered the said mining has become a full blown community. The current number of illegal miners operating at Old Oyo National Park is estimated to be between 200,000 and 400,000, including individuals involved in buying and selling activities at the site. According to my research , there is nothing sold outside the illegal mining site that is not also sold within the site. Items sold include foodstuffs, soft drinks, alcoholic beverages, and various forms of hard drugs. There is also the presence of sex workers who render their services to illegal miners inside grass huts constructed within the area. Additionally, medical drugs and medical items such as needles, injections, and intravenous fluids are openly sold at the site. Explosives are also sold to illegal miners and are used for blasting lithium during excavation. There are thousands of blacksmiths on site who fabricate various tools used for illegal mining activities, including shovels, diggers, chisels, and hammers. There is a high rate of child labour at the illegal mining site, also known as Daba. These children are used mainly for sorting lithium from rocks. The illegal mining site is divided into two sections: the Yoruba illegal mining section and the Hausa/Fulani illegal mining section. Both sections are located within Old Oyo National Park. The road leading to the illegal mining site (Daba) is not motorable. Access to the site is only possible by motorcycle. All extracted lithium is transported by motorcycles to Bonni, Igbeti, or Soro in Kishi. This indicates that illegal miners access the mining site through Igbeti, Kishi, and Bonni. As at the time of writing this report, many empty trucks are observed entering through Igbeti, Oyo State, heading directly to Bonni, and passing through Bonni to Jeba Oloru, Kwara State, from where the lithium is transported to destinations of their choice. They operate within the confines of laws established by the illegal miners’ chairman, popularly known as “CD.” Anyone who commits the crime of stealing is punished by death. The area is so enclosed that outsiders can be fished out by them. A bike man who carries lithium from the forest to the truck earns ₦12,000 per bag. One bag of lithium weighs 100kg, and they carry two bags, making 200kg. The miners are so familiar with the area that they can easily move to Igbeti, Kishi, and Bonni in Kwara State from the forest while evading security forces without being noticed, because many of them have been living in the forest for more than three years without seeing the outside world. It is imperative that both the Kwara State Government, Oyo State Government, and the Federal Government get hold of this before it becomes a security problem for the whole country. Illegal mining in Old Oyo National Park is progressing, not regressing.

HURIWA ACCUSES ABBA KYARI'S LEGAL TEAM OF SPREADING FALSEHOODS TO OBSTRUCT JUSTICE The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) has accused the suspended Deputy Commissioner of Police, Abba Kyari, and his team of orchestrating a deliberate campaign of misinformation to subvert justice in his ongoing drug trafficking trial. In a statement signed by its National Coordinator, Emmanuel Onwubiko, HURIWA said recent reports circulating on social media, claiming that two convicted drug traffickers had implicated officers of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), were false and intended to mislead the public. HURIWA stated that official court records and witness statements from the convicts, Chibunna Patrick Umeibe and Emeka Alphonsus Ezenwanne, show that they had no contact or collusion with NDLEA officers at Enugu Airport in January 2022. The statement said that pictures and travel details of the traffickers were sent to Kyari, who, despite being under suspension and facing extradition to the United States, dispatched his team to intercept the suspects. The group added that while in Kyari’s custody, the traffickers were allegedly coerced into making statements against NDLEA officers, and the videos being circulated were scripted under the supervision of Kyari’s men. HURIWA cited evidence already admitted in court, including a video showing Kyari handing over $61,400 to an NDLEA undercover agent, described as proceeds from the sale of seized cocaine. The organisation also referenced witness statements from the convicts detailing how Kyari’s team identified and intercepted them at Enugu Airport after receiving information from the cartel in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. The group called on the Nigerian judiciary to remain steadfast and urged media outlets to verify claims against official court transcripts before reporting, warning that false narratives cannot erase evidence of criminality. HURIWA emphasised that the prosecution’s case, supported by documented evidence of bribery and breach of public trust, remains intact.
