I train my kids with drug proceeds –Suspect

A suspected drug smuggler, Ismaila Aliyu, 26, has told the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) that he takes care of his children and two wives with money realised from sales of Indian hemp.

Aliyu, a transporter, told investigators that selling hemp was the only business he could do to take care of his family. The suspect said that he used to import the illicit drug from Ghana. According to him, the particular consignment which led to his arrest was meant for end of year sales.
He added: “Most dealers now prefer imported cannabis from Ghana. This consignment was targeted at the end of year sales. As a transporter, I make more money from cannabis importation.
The cannabis would have been distributed to dealers in Lagos if not that we were arrested. I have two wives and four children. I take care of them from the money I make from cannabis sales.” Aliyu was arrested along with Edwin Igbokwe, 39, a labourer at Badagry jetty.
The suspects were transferred to NDLEA by the Assistant Inspector General of Police in charge of Zone 2 Command, Lagos, Bala Hassan.
The suspects were arrested with 863 compressed parcels of dried weeds that tested positive for cannabis weighing 781.5kgs.
