 A search on the truck conveying the suspected consignment indicated that it was designed specifically to convey illicit drugs as there was a special compartment welded to the base of the truck for concealment purposes but could be discovered on scrutiny. It took the vigilance of the troops at the checkpoint to detect the concealed drugs after resisting the bribe offered by the suspected drug syndicates.

Accordingly, members of the public are enjoined to continue to provide useful information. On criminal activities to security agencies for a prompt response. The suspected illicit drugs and suspects have been handed over to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency Lagos Command for further action.
