Kibo said the agency had been trailing the kingpin for about six months following an intelligence report.

Kibo explained that after thorough investigation in his house at Wuro-Chekke Ward in Yola South Local Government Area, Buba admitted to be in the illicit business for the past two years.

He pointed out that Buba, 37, was the main sources of cocaine business to many higher institutions of learning in the state.

According to the Commander, after further investigations, it was uncovered that the kingpin has wasted several lives of innocent youths in the state who became addicted to cocaine.

Kibo said: “Ahmed Buba has confirmed to the command that the sources of his cocaine is from Abuja.”

He explained that the cracked cocaine was more dangerous than the ordinary powdered cocaine, if consumed.

Kibo said he was worried that the hard drugs cartels were now using vehicles spare parts, popularly known as Belgium, to conceal illicit drugs in order to defeat security checking points.

He warned that the command would not relent in its efforts to rid out the state of drugs.
