According to Babafemi, the raids, code-named “Operation Mop Up,” are a part of law enforcement efforts to eliminate those who deal in and use drugs that facilitate crime and violence in order to ensure a peaceful transition of power on May 29 at both the national and subnational levels of government.

Lots of illegal drugs, including cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, tramadol, codein-based syrup, cannabis sativa, and numerous novel psychoactive compounds, among others, were found in the states and FCT in the first few days after the operation started, according to Babafemi.

He disclosed that Lagos, Nano, Abuja, Kaduna, Rivers, Bayelsa, Adamawa, Osun, Benue, and Plateau are at the top of the list for high arrest and seizure rates. Meanwhile,

Brigadier General Mohamed Buba Marwa, Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of NDLEA, thanked all the officers and personnel of the participating state commands and other formations.

According to an affidavit submitted in support of the move on notice and signed by Ms. Grace Udeagha, Mbah returned to Nigeria after earning his law degree from the University of East London in 2000.

She further testified in the affidavit that Mbah applied for and was accepted into the Bar Part I curriculum of the Nigerian Law School as a requirement to practice as a barrister and solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria.
