National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have arrested one Stephen Afam Ikeanyionwu, a drug dealer for attempting to export 69.65kilograms of cocaine, heroin and cannabis to the United Kingdom (UK).
Grassroots.ng gathered that operatives traced him to a popular pentecostal church in Ojodu Berger, Lagos.
The suspect had tried to move the substances through the NAHCO export shed of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, MMIA, Lagos.
Stephen was picked up after he stepped out of church service. His arrest followed the interception of a consignment of the illicit drugs going to the UK through Lagos this month.

After his arrest, investigation revealed the identity of the actual owner of the consignment, Stephen. The dealer was apprehended in a sting operation, three days after the driver’s confession.
