Troops of the 81 Division, Nigerian Army, have intercepted 792 parcels of drugs suspected to be Cannabis Sativa worth N10 million along the Ilaro-Benin Republic border.
The acting Deputy Director of the Army division, Major Olaniyi Osoba, disclosed this in a statement on Friday.
Osoba stated that the parcels of illicit drugs were concealed in a truck coming from the Volta Region of Ghana, to be delivered to a drug syndicate based in Lagos that was presently on the run, adding that the troops rejected the bribe offered by the suspected drug syndicates.
Osoba urged members of the public to continue providing security agencies with useful information on criminal activities, noting that the suspected drugs and suspects had been handed over to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency for further actions.
