A suspected fake drug dealer, Jerry Stephen, has been arrested at Igbogila area of Ayobo/Ipaja Local Council Development Area, LCDA, Lagos State, Southwest Nigeria.
The 27-year old suspect from Edo State was caught with drugs with fake NAFDAC registration number A4-038-8L.
Stephen said he had been selling the drugs for the past three years and he bought them in Ajegunle, Lagos. He said he bought the drugs from one Peter, which he in turn sold for N200, adding: “I have not achieved anything, the money I made from it is barely enough for my feeding.”
He said he was a student of Business Administration of the Institute of Continuous Education affiliated to Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma; but he dropped out for lack of fund.
The suspect said he lives close to the manufacturer of the drugs at Kehinde Sreet, Ajegunle, Apapa, Lagos.
The suspect was said to be parading himself as a council health worker before the vice chairman of the council, Hon. Kashimawo Elijah with some members of neighbourhood watch officers arrested him.
Speaking on the incident, the chairman, Ayobo/Ipaja LCDA, Hon. Falilat Ajijola said the name of the council should not be dragged into the mud by the suspect and his likes adding, “Fake drugs cause damage to people’s lives. My advice to people is that they should please stay away from hard drugs and any other illicit drugs.”
