A Nigerian and three Bolivians are telling officials of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) how they came about the clandestine laboratory used for the illicit production of methamphetamine at satellite town, Lagos which they run.
The Chairman/Chief Executive of the agency, Alhaji Ahmadu Giade, who announced the arrest said the matter would not be treated with kid gloves, as such illegal outfit remains a threat to public health and safety.
Three Bolivians arrested are Yerko Artunduaga Dorado, 19, Ruben Ticona Jorge, 21 and Hugo Chavez Moreno, 39. The fourth suspect is a 23-year-old Nigerian, Uba Ubachukwu Collins. However, Solomon Azuka Uzoka and Basil Ikechukwu Uzoka are wanted for questioning by the anti-drug agency.
Giade said the laboratory was detected by operatives attached to the Lagos State Command. Items recovered at the production area include 41.150kg of ephedrine, 4.8kg of methamphetamine, other chemicals and sundry gadgets used in the laboratory. Three vehicles, a Honda Accord Saloon car, a Honda CRV and a Toyota 4 Runner were also impounded.
