‏­A Lagos-based businessman identified as Ajah Johnson Uchenna, along with his wife, Rosemary Uchenna, and their two daughters, Stella and Ngozi Uchenna, as well as a family friend, Okoro Elijah, have been arrested by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) for allegedly running a family drug cartel.

The NDLEA Director of Media & Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday, stating that the arrest was made possible through credible intelligence gathering by the agency.

Femi noted that the couple was first apprehended on June 13 by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) in Ojo, Lagos, and transferred to the NDLEA along with 277.5kg of skunk, following a series of operations by security agencies.

He added that while still in detention, the agency got information that the illicit drug network was still running in their house. Acting on the information,
NDLEA operatives raided the family’s residence and packing store on the 1st of July, where they uncovered an additional 231 kilograms of skunk.

During this follow-up raid, the daughters, Ngozi and Blessing Uchenna, alongside a family friend Elijah, were arrested.
