The drugs, packed in ten sacks, were being conveyed in a Lagos colour commercial bus with registration number: LND 995 XT from Iddo to a destination in Mushin.
SP Benjamin Hundeyin said in a statement that “Luck ran out on the suspects when vigilant Rapid Response Squad (RRS) operatives on routine patrol stopped the bus about 0400hrs on April 29, 2022, at Stadium Bus Stop, Surulere.
While two occupants of the vehicle escaped, the driver, Amodu Agbaje, was apprehended. The arrested driver claimed he was offered N25,000 to convey the drugs with a street value of N3,000,000.
The Lagos State Commissioner of Police, CP Abiodun Alabi, has directed the Commander RRS, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, to transfer the suspect and the exhibits to the Command Headquarters for further investigations.
