Kill me rather than destroy my cannabis farm - Suspect tells NDLEA operatives - Edoman - 09-02-2020 Kill me rather than destroy my cannabis farm - Suspect tells NDLEA operatives A 42-year-old cannabis farmer identified as Clement Akor who was arrested by operatives of Kogi state's command of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), has begged for his life to be taken rather than his 10-hectare cannabis plantation being destroyed. The father of 6 who was arrested alongside his accomplice David Ameh at Enabo village in Ankpa Local Government Area of Kogi State, stated that he has invested so much in his farm to lose it. Admitting that he is aware of the law banning the sale of Cannabis Sativa, Akor said; Quote:”I am the owner of this farm. I learnt it in Yoruba land. When I cultivated one last year, it was stolen. So it is this year I bought seed from Yoruba land to plant new ones before I was caught. NDLEA commander, Alfred Adewumi confirmed the arrest of the suspects and also disclosed that they were nabbed through intelligence. Adewumi said; Quote:“Seeing they say is believing. What you are seeing today is certainly more than three football Field but together. I would make you make your judgment. Just look around, that is the huge expanse. We just left the first farm which is equally a huge cannabis plantation. The NDLEA commander added that all the suspects would be charged to court as soon as investigation is concluded. |
