Nigeria: NDLEA Classifies Kwara As Hot Spot for Drug Trafficking

16 January 2013

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Kwara has classified the state as a hot spot for illicit drugs trafficking.

The state Commander of NDLEA, Mr Segun Oke, made this known while addressing Journalists in Ilorin on Wednesday.

Oke said that because of the strategic location of Kwara and the heavy vehicular traffic coming and going out of the state "it is a hot spot for trafficking".

According to him, Kwara is in the middle of the country, hence traffic can move from anywhere to and from the state.
