The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) detained 60 people at a drug party in Abuja.
The party was reportedly organised by one Stanley Ikechukwu on Friday.
According to a statement issued on Sunday by the NDLEA’s spokesperson, Femi Babafemi, those arrested comprised 25 men and 35 women, with at least six suspects present with various substances.
Twenty people were freed unconditionally after testing negative for narcotics.
The party’s theme was ‘Go Hard or Go Home; Pick Your Poison’.
The operation resulted in the arrest of 25 males and 35 girls.
The statement states, in part:
“In Abuja, the NDLEA operatives on Friday night disrupted a drug party dubbed ‘Go hard or Go Home. Pick Your Poison’, where 60 suspects comprising 25 males and 35 females were arrested at an apartment in the Sun City Estate in the Federal Capital Territory.
“The raid followed credible intelligence about the drug party organised by one Stanley Ikechukwu, who was arrested at the venue.
“The Chairman/Chief Executive of NDLEA, Brig Gen Mohamed Buba Marwa (Rtd) has directed that 20 of the suspects who tested negative to drug be released unconditionally, while 33 others who tested positive to illicit drugs were to be released on bail and will report at the FCT Command of the Agency on Monday to begin treatment and counselling.”
