A joint operation by troops and National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) officials led to the arrest of five suspected drug dealers in Sapele, Delta State. The operation took place in the Ugberukoko Community on September 4, according to a post shared on X by security analyst Zagazola Makama. The raid occurred at approximately 10:10 pm after intelligence indicated potential drug-peddling activities in the area.

Makama reported that the suspects were apprehended during a cordon-and-search operation, and six bottles suspected to contain codeine were seized from them. Both the suspects and the recovered substances were handed over to the relevant authorities for further investigation and appropriate action.
