In a recent raid operation conducted on 2nd September 2026 at Lobito Crescent, Wuse 2, operatives of the FCT Police Command attached to Maitama Division arrested seven (7) suspects, comprising six (6) males and one (1) female, for alleged drug related offences.
Upon their arrest, the suspects were found in possession of various illicit and controlled substances, including dried leaves suspected to be cannabis, packaged in small transparent sachets; several tablets of Tramadol; one bottle of Codeine; and one black polythene bag containing dried leaves suspected to be Cannabis sativa, among others.
