The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has reported the arrests of two elderly men for drug trafficking in separate operations conducted in Abia and Ekiti states. Pa John Ofiel, aged 83, was apprehended on April 28 in Aba, Abia State, where officers seized 700 grams of skunk, a type of cannabis, from him during a raid. In a separate incident, 78-year-old Ogunjobi Samuel was arrested on April 30 at his residence in Ilupeju-Ekiti, with 350 grams of the same substance recovered at the time of his arrest. These arrests are part of a broader effort by the NDLEA to combat drug trafficking across Nigeria, which has also led to multiple other arrests and seizures in various states.
