The NDLEA spokesperson, Femi Babafemi, said in a statement that Boudouma is a major supplier of illicit drugs to traffickers in Nigeria and other parts of Africa. He said that the septuagenarian has been on the agency’s wanted list for several years.
“Boudouma is a major supplier of illicit drugs to traffickers in Nigeria and other parts of Africa. He has been on our wanted list for several years. We are glad that we have finally been able to arrest him,” Babafemi said.
Boudouma is currently being detained by the NDLEA for further investigation and prosecution.
This is a significant arrest by the NDLEA, as it shows that the agency is committed to tackling the problem of drug trafficking in Nigeria. The arrest of Boudouma will also send a strong message to other drug traffickers that they will not be able to escape justice.
It is important to note that drug trafficking is a serious crime that can have devastating consequences for society. Drugs can lead to addiction, crime, and violence. It is important to support the NDLEA in its efforts to combat drug trafficking and make Nigeria a safer place for everyone.
