The agency has arraigned a 63‑year‑old Nigerian, Anochili Innocent, alongside three Mexican nationals believed to be expert chemists hired to operate the lab.
NDLEA officials said the forest facility produced over 2,400 kilograms of methamphetamine, with chemicals and equipment seized during coordinated raids in May 2026.

Operatives stormed the forest lab first before arresting the alleged kingpin at his residence in Golf Estate, Lekki, Lagos.
The three Mexicans , Juan Carlos Meza Torrero (49), Nemecio Martinez Felix (46), and Jesus López Valles (40) , were described as specialists brought in to boost production.
The judge ordered their remand in prison custody while the case continues.

"₦480 billion meth lab"🥺
ReplyDeleteThey invited foriegners even to boost the production chei,it's finished...🙄
You see how it starts ba?
ReplyDeleteA person brings in drug mercenaries to Nigeria to start production of deadly drugs.Before you know it,other people starts importing and bringing in drug mercenaries into Nigeria.
Eventually they start gaining ground,forming gangs for protection,recruiting Nigerians to join their gangs/distribute/create territories for their distribution.They recruit young girls for distribution and prostitution,using the said drugs on them so they can be controlled.
When the above blows in our faces and their killings,gang wars,high rate of drug abuse, we sit down in our judgement seats and blame the government.We tell government they aren't doing enough to curb the crisis.Meanwhile it started with a Nigerian that decided to destroy his nation because of greed.One person out there after seeing this news is planning ways to bring in his own Mexican chemist expert.
