Thereafter, he was taken to his home where 1kg of cocaine from recovered.
“I was just walking on the street and I saw the NDLEA officials when they came in. I saw the event. When they came, they invaded his house, not even his house alone, they went to other houses too. But when they got to know that he was the one, they checked him and they took him away. He joined the NDLEA officials in their car.” a resident of the area where the suspect lives said

Speaking further, the resident said “People in this area have been very careful about complaining to law enforcement agencies about the activities of drug dealers, because such people can be very dangerous. If they get to know that you reported them, you could be harmed. People are living in fear, so the NDLEA should save us, save Nigerian youths.”

Another witness said some Lebanese in the country were putting pressure on the NDLEA to free Chalouhi.

The NDLEA should prepare a watertight case against him. These guys can't treat Nigerians as rags outside and still come here to run drug rings thereby contributing to the already excess problems bedevilling Nigeria.
