    The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Ogun State command, said it has destroyed a six-hectare Indian hemp farm in Alaka village of the state.

    The command added that four suspects were arrested in connection with the illicit cultivation, and investigations into the case were ongoing.

    This was disclosed by the state commandant, Tijani Rabe, in a press conference held in Abeokuta on Thursday.

    Rabe, while maintaining that the conference is focused on the agency’s 2024 performance report, added that 675 drug offenders were arrested within the year.

    He stated that the command also confiscated 9.7 tons of solid drugs and 537.81 litres of liquid-based illicit substances.

    He said, “Operation Closed Gates was initiated as part of our Yuletide strategy and has yielded remarkable success.

    “It targeted drug merchants and syndicates, effectively blocking access routes into the state.”

    Beyond enforcement, the NDLEA intensified its public awareness campaigns, conducting 128 sensitisation programmes in schools, communities, and workplaces.

    “The agency estimates that approximately 27,648 people benefited from these initiatives aimed at educating the public on the dangers of drug abuse, and 221 convictions against drug offenders were secured”, he added.
