The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, has declared a Port Harcourt-based prophetess and Christ Power Adoration Ministries founder, Faith Ugochi, wanted.
The anti-narcotics agency is also seeking information on the whereabouts of a celebrity couple – Igho Ubiribo and Danielle Simba Allen.
Spokesperson for the anti-drug agency, Femi Babafemi, who disclosed this in a statement on Sunday, said they serve as the arrowheads of an international syndicate allegedly recruited teenage girls into drug trafficking syndicate and operating from Los Angeles, United States.
According to Babafemi, the lid was blown off the cartel when NDLEA operatives at the NAHCO import shed of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Ikeja Lagos intercepted a consignment of 32.70 kilograms of Loud, a strong variant of cannabis concealed in cartons of used wears on Wednesday, November 16, 2022.
The NDLEA spokesman said a freight agent, Ukoh Ifeanyi Oguguo, was immediately arrested while further investigations led to the arrest of four more suspects: Chikodi Favour; Obiyom Shalom Chiamaka; Nnochiri Chidinma Promise and Edward Omatseye (aka Montana).
The statement reads, “The 15-year-old Favour was the first sales girl to be arrested at a fuel station in Ajah area of Lagos.
“She thereafter led the operatives to a duplex accommodation around the Ikate area of Lekki, which was later discovered to be a rented apartment by the criminal group purposely for four young girls that the syndicate uses for marketing and distribution of illicit drugs.
“Another girl, Shalom, who is a fresh graduate of Agricultural Science from Rivers State University of Science and Technology was picked from the house alongside Favour.
