Drug Baron Arrested Again After 10 Years Of Escape, 46.8kg Illicit Drugs Seized by Jasoncy(m): 4:15pm On Feb 20, 2021 |
The Joint Task Force (JTF) Operation Unit of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA has arrested a drug baron, Mr Chidi Olife who escaped arrest for unlawful importation of 5.250kg of heroin concealed in books from Karachi, Pakistan to Lagos since June 2010.
