The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, has disclosed that a trending video allegedly showing some of its officers operating in a minibus in Lagos State should be disregarded.
The agency disclosed this on Tuesday via its Twitter handle, through its Director of Media and Advocacy, Femi Babafemi, with the caption “Trending video of NDLEA officers in a minibus is an old skit, not real.”
Mr Babafemi noted that, “those in the video are not NDLEA officers.”
He added that NDLEA had disclaimed the video on May 21, 2022.
The statement read, “The Agency had in a well-publicized statement released on Saturday, May 21, 2022, stated that it had established, following a series of public enquiries, that the video with screenshot pictures attached to the statement is a skit produced by one Mathew C Eze who lives in the Lekki area of Lagos.
“A year after, the video has returned to the social media space, a development that has led to several enquiries from concerned members of the public on the authenticity of the content of the video.”
