The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has made a massive breakthrough in its anti-narcotics campaign, uncovering a stash house in Lekki Phase 1, Lagos, containing cannabis valued at over ₦5.8 billion. 

During the raid on Friday, May 8, 2026, operatives recovered 4,000 parcels of "Loud," a potent imported strain of cannabis, weighing 2,326 kilograms.

In a separate string of operations, the agency arrested three persons with disabilities (PWDs) for alleged drug trafficking.

Marwa reiterated the agency’s commitment to dismantling drug cartels across the country, regardless of the suspects' physical status.
