Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have dismantled a large methamphetamine laboratory operated by a Nigerian-Mexican cartel in Tapa Village, Oyo State. This operation led to the arrest of several individuals, including a Mexican national. The discovery is part of ongoing efforts to combat transnational drug syndicates in Nigeria, following a similar operation conducted four weeks prior, according to Ripples Nigeria.
