Another drug dealer who was arrested as part of Operation Tsunami has been jailed… this time for more than 8 years!!

Here’s the moment we arrested Olusegun Babalola at his flat in Peterborough earlier this year.

A county lines drug dealer who hid a stash worth more than £7,000 in a box of tissues has been jailed for more than eight years.

Olusegun Babalola, 26, was arrested on 19 May after police raided his home in Whitsed Street, Eastfield, as part of an operation into drug dealing and exploitation in Peterborough.


Following months of intelligence gathering, police evidenced Babalola had been involved in supplying crack cocaine and heroin in the city as part of a ‘county lines’ operation.

The morning police raided his home, officers found more than £7,000 worth of heroin and crack cocaine wraps hidden within a tissue box on the kitchen worktop.

Detective Constable Olly Campbell, who investigated, said: “Babalola had a considerable amount of designer goods in his possession, which were not consistent with the lifestyle of someone who claimed to not currently be in employment.

Other drugs paraphernalia, including small weighing scales and multiple mobile phones – one of which was later confirmed to be the “deal line” for the county line – were found in the one-bedroom flat, along with a considerable amount of designer clothing and footwear.

He appeared at Peterborough Crown Court today (Friday) where he was sentenced to eight years and three months in prison after previously admitting five counts of supplying crack cocaine, being concerned in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine and possession with intent to supply heroin and crack cocaine.


“Through a range of tactics, we were able to build up a significant amount of evidence to prove he not only was dealing drugs but played a leading role in the county lines set-up, meaning he had little choice but to admit the offences in court.”

Babalola is the seventh person to be sentenced as part of Operation Tsunami, a crackdown on exploitation and illegal drugs in Peterborough.

The enforcement phase, which ran throughout May, has so far seen 48 people arrested with 19 of those charged with 83 drug offences, and five people sentenced to a total of 24 years and 11 months in prison.

Another useless Oduduwa has kissed the dust. They never learn, their brother Hushpupy is still serving jail term for committing terrible frauds. Another of their drug lord is parading as president. Most of their politicians are either drug lords, fraudstars or ritualists. What a disgusting set of people!

Spits!

Some of you with a good career path, working 9-5, and earning a decent income, are coming online only to feel intimidated and less important by the posts of some confused people without a predictable income. Just because someone is earning with a particular skill or business and posting them online doesn't mean they're doing better than you.
Appreciate yourself and what you are doing.

Lazy oduduwa fool. What is 7000 pounds that this idiot had to carry its worth in drugs? This amount is what focused and hard-working people can earn in less than 2 months. Now the lazy oduduwa fool will rot in jail.

What do we even expect when their traditional rulers, politicians etc all pushed drugs or other forms of criminalities.

Spits!

Criminals are in every race and tribe, but one thing is sure an Igbo man cannot be Nigeria president.

I couldn't decipher the incoherent trash you wrote. It sounded like a cerebral palsy kid trying to write something.

Meanwhile, go to Saudi Arabia prisons and see sadwasted people rotting away. 90% of inmates in Saudi prisons are from the sadwasted region.

If no be Igbo na their cousins Yoruba. They are the ones smearing Nigeria's identity with mud internationally and locally.
I am sorry about this but this is the truth. I don't need to read the story. It is only a guess based on precedent.
