The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has arrested Arokodare Damil Ebenezer, the owner of Damillionz Takeout in Lekki, Lagos, for allegedly importing 60 parcels of Lord, a potent cannabis strain, from the U.S. to Nigeria.

The 43-year-old businessman was apprehended on Monday, March 24, 2025, at Bay Lounge on Admiralty Way, Lekki, where he allegedly ran his drug operation. His arrest came as he awaited the delivery of a fresh narcotics shipment.

According to NDLEA spokesperson Femi Babafemi, the arrest followed the interception of a shipment containing seven large cartons of dr¥gs that arrived in Lagos on March 12. NDLEA operatives seized the consignment from a logistics company before tracking it back to Ebenezer.

“After his arrest, a search of his Lekki residence led to the recovery of 94 grams of the same psychoactive substance, along with c+nnabis crushers and other drug paraphernalia, bringing the total drug seizure to 32.24 kilograms,” Babafemi stated.

During interrogation, Ebenezer reportedly admitted to starting his illicit drug trade in 2017.
