The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has uncovered a clandestine operation involving illicit drugs concealed within tins of tomato paste. The revelation was made by Femi Babafemi, the Director of Media and Advocacy at NDLEA, in a Facebook post on Sunday.

Babafemi, who shared both videos and images depicting the discovery, commented, “Narco-trend update: This is yet another reason why we tell you some human minds are so flagitious, as this video shows the moment #ndlea_nigeria officers discovered tins of tomato paste used to conceal illicit drugs. Shine your eyes 👀 and be careful with what you pick up from people.”
