NDLEA Arrests General Overseer In Lagos For Alleged Drug Trafficking
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) said it has arrested the founder and general overseer of a church in Lagos State, Adefolusho Olasele, also known as Abbas Ajakaiye, over his alleged role in multiple shipments of illicit drugs from Ghana to Nigeria.
NDLEA’s spokesman, Femi Babafemi, disclosed this in a statement on Sunday, saying Olasele had been on the run for months.
The suspect was apprehended on Sunday, August 3, 2025, at his church in the Okun Ajah area of Lekki, Lagos.
Babafemi stated that operatives waited until the end of the Sunday service before arresting him as he stepped out of the premises.
According to him, the pastor fled to Ghana in June to evade arrest after operatives linked him to two cannabis seizures, 200kg recovered at Okun Ajah Beach on June 4 and 700kg found in his delivery van on July 6.
