Nigerian Teenager Sold Father's 2 SUVs Which Costs N7.5Million for N350k To Buy Drugs In Abia

During a workshop on substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking for senior secondaryschool students, organized by the National Committee on Narcotics and Substance Abuse in Abia yesterday, the Commander of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Abia state, Akingbade Bamidele, revealed that his command recently counseled a teenager who sold his father's N7.5 million SUV for N350, 000 in Umuahia, Abia, in order to buy hard drugs.

According to him, the boy who sold his father's two SUVs got to the dependent stage where there's absolutely nothing he cannot sell, just to buy drugs.

Here's what he said;

"There's a boy at Umuahia that his father brought to us for counseling. He sold two vehicles - a Lexus and a Forerunner worth N7.5m for N350,000. Do you know why? The reason is because he was involved in drug abuse and has gotten to dependent stage where there's absolutely nothing he cannot sell, just to buy drugs. It was a situation of keep this vehicles for me and just be giving me drugs. You notice when things began to miss at home, that something is wrong."

He further said;

"The cult boys that cut the heads of other students at Uturu and used them for goal post, when they were arrested, we went and tested them and it was clear that they were high on drugs and that gave them such mind to severe another persons' head for goal post. You have to be very careful. The young man you saw on the screen was sent to deliver a parcel of which he doesn't know much about and today, he's in trouble. Ignorance is not an excuse in law. The rich will use the children of the poor to do their illicit drug trafficking".
