The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency says its operatives have raided a factory producing Akuskura, a psychoactive substance, in the Mubi area of Adamawa state.In a statement on Sunday, Femi Babafemi, NDLEA spokesperson, said the factory distributed the illicit substance in large quantities to Chad, Cameroon and the Niger Republic.
“On Friday April 28, NDLEA operatives at the Tincan port intercepted 63kg Canadian Loud packed in bags in the boot of one of the five used vehicles in a container marked, TLLU4840762 coming from Toronto via Montreal, during a joint examination with other stakeholders at the port,” Babafemi said. “When Mordi presented the bag, which he claimed contained food items for export, operatives noticed that in the course of searching the consignment, the side walls of the bag were unevenly bloated, after which they dismantled the false packings and recovered the illicit substance,” the NDLEA spokesperson said.
