The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has warned night club operators and fun seekers against the growing trend of organizing and attending drug parties, describing the practice as a criminal act punishable under Nigerian law.
The warning follows a weekend raid on a drug party held at proxy night club, where operatives of the agency arrested over 100 attendees, including the club owner, Mike Nwogu, and his Manager, Joachin Milary.
Providing an update on the matter in a statement, the agency’s director of media and advocacy, Femi Babafemi, said undercover agents had made pre-purchases of illicit drugs, and monitored activities for four hours before storming the premises.
