The Customs Area Controller, Dr. Ben Oramalugo, stated that the seizure highlighted the extent smugglers would go to distribute illegal drugs and demonstrated the command’s commitment to thwarting such efforts.

Oramalugo added that the command was determined to prevent illegal substances from infiltrating society, citing the adverse impact of Cannabis Sativa on public health, especially on youth.

The seized Cannabis Sativa will be handed over to the appropriate authorities (NDLEA) for further investigation and disposal, according to the law.
