Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, on Saturday 25th November, raided a lounge in Osogbo where a night party organised for illicit substance abuse was going to be held and arrested some of the organizers who were found with drug exhibits.

The raid, according to the spokesman of the agency, Femi Babafemi, followed credible intelligence that some persons were going to hold a night party tagged “Unholy Alliance…for Stoners and Drunkards” where different types of illicit substances were going to be sold and consumed by patrons.

“Soon after the organizers began to gather at Berrymist Lounge located at Ofatedo area of Osogbo to start the party, NDLEA operatives swooped on them, arrested them, and recovered illicit substances of abuse and drug paraphernalia from them.

“Those arrested include: Ikotu Omolayo, 25; Fola Olabode, 30, and Akorede Adunni Ajibola, 22. The management of the Lounge has also been invited for further investigation.

“This comes on the heels of an earlier raid on Thursday 23rd Nov. at Area 5 forest reserve, Ile-Ife where operatives recovered 156kgs of cannabis sativa”.
