The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Kano Strategic Command, has arrested 73 suspects and recovered various illicit drugs during a one-day intelligence-led operation across the state.
This is contained in a statement issued by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, Mr Sadiq Muhammad-Maigatari, on Thursday in Kano.
Muhammad-Maigatari quoted the State Commander, Dahiru Yahaya-Lawal, as saying the arrests were made during a one-day operation conducted on June 10 under the ongoing “Operation Sharar Mafaka.”
Yahaya-Lawal said the operation was part of the Command’s sustained efforts to identify, dislodge, and dismantle notorious drug joints across the state.
