During the raid, eight (8) suspects linked to cult-related activities were arrested, and various quantities of suspected Cannabis Sativa and other dangerous drugs were recovered.

The Command notes that the prevalence of illicit drugs remains a major enabler of crime and criminality, particularly among youth groups involved in cult-related activities. This underscores the need for sustained operations and community collaboration in tackling drug abuse and related offences.


The suspects are currently undergoing profiling and investigation, after which they will be charged to court accordingly.


The Command reassures Ndi Anambra of its commitment to sustaining ongoing operations aimed at dislodging criminal elements across the State and ensuring the safety and security of all residents.
