Nollywood actor cum skit maker, Nosa Rex and Nigerian rapper cum activist, Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, among others have reacted to the burning of 194 billion Naira worth of cocaine by the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency.
It would be recalled that last week, the agency reported a large scale drug burst carried out in a warehouse located at Ikorodu, Lagos State.
During the operation, 197 billion naira worth of cocaine, which weighed 1.8tonnes was seized, and the suspected drug barons were also arrested.
In a video shared via the agency’s Twitter page on Tuesday, NDLEA showed the seized drugs being set ablaze. The caption read:
“VIDEO: NDLEA sets ablaze 1.8 tons of cocaine recovered from a warehouse in Ikorodu area of Lagos today, Tuesday 27th September 2022,”
Reacting to the news, lawyer turned rapper, Falz, faulted the agency for burning potential evidence before culprits are arraigned before a court of law. He asked:
“This administration must really think that we are daft sha!! What is this lamba (lie) that the NDLEA is giving with this cocaine seizure saga? Dem dey burn evidence?”
Collaborating with Falz, actor Nosa Rex wrote:
“No be only burn…na Burna Boy ye ye ye ye ye ye ye”

Who do they work for ? You think N194B worth of coke belongs to those ppl that look unkept in the picture that went viral. NDLEA is disguising and playing games. They have literally return the coke to the owner cos the whole movie was actually scripted. You don’t close a big case so soon just like that in a sane country.
