    NDLEA arrests six over drug cookies, noodles in Abuja

    The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has arrested six persons for selling drug cookies and noodles after its operatives raided a relaxation centre, popularly called garden, in Abuja, following credible information.

    During the raid on the garden at Wuse Zone 5 behind Shoprite, a lady identified as Rachael Famiyesun, 29, who deals in drug cookies was arrested along with her salesgirl, Stella Sunday, 20. Beside the cookies, they were also caught selling bottles of black currant drink, popularly called Zobo, prepared with cannabis.

    NDLEA Spokesman, Femi Babafemi, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday.

    He said another business operator in the garden, Moses Obi, 30, was also arrested with his salesgirl, Aisha Abdulrahman, 19, for selling Indomie noodles prepared with cannabis. A barman, Ahonye Jonah, 31, who works with the owner of the garden, was equally arrested while one of their customers, 38-year-old Ngozi Justina Emelogu, was also picked during the raid on Wednesday, January 19, 2022.
