The Kwara State Command of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested a 21-year-old girl, Ishola Bisola, who allegedly used as an agent to hawk illegal substances.
The Agency also arrested three other suspects for dealing in drugs.
While two of the suspects were picked up in an undisclosed hotel in Ilọrin, one was arrested on the highway en route to Kebbi State.
Speaking on their arrest, the NDLEA boss, Commander Ibrahim Mohammed, disclosed that the latest breakthrough was a result of the intelligence gathered during stop-and-search operations in Ilọrin.
He said, “The particular hotel has been used to stock and sell hard drugs and people go there to do illegal activity. We stormed the place and picked up the two major dealers, Segun Gabriel and one other with cannabis sativa, tramadol and methamphetamine.
“Further investigation led to the arrest of a 21-year-old girl and lover of Gabriel, Ishola Bisola, used as an agent to hawk the dangerous drugs.”
Mohammed further disclosed that another suspect, Yusuf Yahaya, who was “arrested on the highway with cannabis, was found to be a supplier of hard drugs to bandits around Kebbi and Zamara states axis”.
He said the suspects would be arraigned after the yuletide.
