The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has announced the arrest of Sulaiman Jimoh, identified as the “head of Mushin drug cartel,” by its operatives in Lagos.
In a statement on Wednesday, Femi Babafemi, the NDLEA spokesperson, revealed that the 57-year-old Jimoh had repeatedly evaded arrest.
According to Babafemi, the agency tracked down and apprehended Jimoh, popularly known as Temo, at Igbarere Street, Mushin.
The statement further reads that “In the last two years, the NDLEA had intercepted large consignments of illicit drugs worth billions of naira owned by Temo but he has remained largely evasive while a few encounters with him and his armed gangs in his Mushin enclave had resulted in gunfight.
However, Buba Marwa, who serves as NDLEA chairman, commended the officers and men of the Lagos command, special monitoring task force and other formations for their resilience and professionalism.
