No fewer than 60 persons have been arrested by operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency at a drug party in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
The 35 females and 25 females were arrested on Friday at the party, dubbed: “Go hard or Go Home. Pick Your Poison.”
The party was ongoing on Friday night at Sun City Estate when the anti-narcotic agency operatives struck.
The Director of Media and Advocacy of the NDLEA, Femi Babafemi, said the raid followed credible intelligence about the drug party organised by one Stanley Ikechukwu, who was also arrested at the venue.
At least six of the suspects: Victoria Adoga, Hamza Yari, Joanne Essein Joy, Socchima Valentine, Jago Imole and Charles Indobuibisi, were arrested with different quantities of ecstasy and cannabis.
The Chairman/Chief Executive of the NDLEA, Brigadier General Mohamed Buba Marwa (retd), has directed that 20 of the suspects who tested negative to drug be released unconditionally.
Thirty-three of the suspects who tested positive to illicit drugs are to be released on bail and will report at the FCT Command of the Agency on Monday to begin treatment and counselling.
