The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) on Monday said it
destroyed a 10-hectare Indian hemp farm at Area 5, Ife-South Local
Government Area of Osun State.
The State Commander of the agency, Egbeola Samuel, said 19.3 kg of
already harvested Indian hemp was also seized at the farm while one
suspect was arrested. Samuel, who said the command was set to destroy
more Indian hemp farms, solicited the support of the state government.
The NDLEA boss also commended Remi Kolajo, the Chairman of the Task
force on Eradication of Planting, Distribution and Usage of Cannabis
Sativa and Psychotropic Substances, for his support saying the NDLEA
would not relent in its efforts to make Osun a drug-free state
