On December 24, 2024, operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) intercepted two boats carrying 1,960 kilograms of cannabis, commonly known as “Ghanaian Loud,” at Eleko Beach in Lagos.
The operation led to the arrest of six foreign nationals who transported the consignments from Ghana.
The suspects include two Ghanaians: Godsway John, 38, and Freedom Kelvin, 33; and four Beninese: Chegoun Hounsou, 23, Gadabor Nyameto, 47, Adantg Sasa, 34, and Ayao Kayivi, 21.
