The navy handed over three Ghanaian and one Beninois.

The Commander of NNS BEECROFT, Commodore Rafiu Oladejo, represented by the Executive Officer, Navy Capt. Mutalib Raji, said the consignments were intercepted on Aug. 25 by the Quick Response Team.

Oladejo said the operation was sequel to credible and actionable intelligence received by NNS BEECROFT on suspicious activities of some criminal elements taking place around Lekki Beach axis.

This, he said necessitated the deployment of the team to the area for intensive operation resulting in interception of 72 bags of cannabis sativa weighing over 2,880kh.

He said the effort was sequel to the Strategic Directive of the Chief of the Naval Staff, Vice Adm. Emmanuel Ogalla, to ensure a safe and secured maritime environment for economic activities to thrive.

“Interestingly, the team also arrested three Ghanaians, namely;  Godswill Zevor, Monday Kpomeja, Gbega Agbeko and a Beninois, Elugbe Philip.

“Perpetrators of illicit drugs are warned to desist from such acts as NNS BEECROFT will continue to pursue every criminal element operating within its area of operation.
