The Kano State Command of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arraigned a well-known drug trafficker, Suleiman Aminu, popularly known as Danwawu, before Justice M.S. Shu’aibu at the Federal High Court 1 in Kano.
According to a statement by Sadiq Muhammad Maigatari, the public relations officer of the NDLEA in Kano, Aminu has been a long-standing figure accused of illicit drug operations, running a network that has fueled substance abuse and insecurity across Kano and surrounding states.
“Suleiman Aminu was apprehended during a coordinated operation by the Nigeria Police Force, Kano Command, at his residence and was subsequently transferred to the NDLEA for a thorough investigation and prosecution.
Upon his transfer, a follow-up operation was conducted, resulting in the recovery of additional illicit substances. His arraignment marks a significant victory in the ongoing battle against drug-related crimes and highlights the agency’s unwavering commitment to eradicating drug trafficking in all its forms,” the statement revealed
The court has ordered that the suspect be remanded in a correctional facility until the next adjourned date.
