Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Bayelsa State have apprehended a 27 year old man over allegations of possession and sale of illicit drugs.
Yoto Seibokuro, a Southern Ijaw native, is being detained by the drug agency in Yenagoa, the state capital, after his arrest on October 26, 2013 in the Agudama environs of the state where he was allegedly found dealing in cannabis sativa aka Indian Hemp.
Nigerian Eye reports:
The suspect, who said he was also a fisherman, said because of his large family, his income from fishing was no longer adequate hence he started selling drugs to cope with family pressure.
“I am a fisherman. I have five children and three wives. I sell drugs to augment my fishing business. This is because the income from fishing is no longer able to take care of my large family,” Seibokuro said.
The drug suspect, who said he married when he was 20 years old, explained that during his early years of marriage, they were coping until in the last two years when his financial situation became precarious owing to his large family.
Paraded alongside Seibokuro were Mrs. Asenitiya College, 50; Mrs. Tari Reuben, 37; Mrs. Penny Gillet, 35; Mr. Simon Obru; Mr. Felix Odalonu, 36 and Mr. Umaru Mohammed, 42.
