The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has dealt a staggering blow to the pharmaceutical black market after raiding three illicit warehouses in a residential estate in the Okota area of Lagos.
The operation resulted in the recovery of narcotics with a street value of ₦16,927,200,000.
Acting on intelligence, operatives targeted locations at 98 Olukayode Awofisayo Street and 5 Charles Ndumetu Street within Park View Estate on April 17, 2026.
The haul included 2,360,000 pills of high-potency tramadol (225mg) and 1,909,400 bottles of codeine syrup.
NDLEA Chairman, Brig. Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa (retd.), hailed the breakthrough, noting that the agency is staying "several steps ahead" of traffickers.
"Let this be a clear signal to those who think they can profit from the destruction of our children’s futures: we will find you and bring the full weight of the law upon you," Marwa warned.
