base.
Due to the unrelenting efforts of the officers, on 18th January,
2019, at about 12 noon, nemesis caught up with them while
perpetrating the acts. After laying siege for some weeks.
The three suspects have been handed over to National Drug Law
Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) and Department of State Services (DSS),
for further investigation and prosecution.
The Controller of Prisons, Osun State Command, Mr Segun
Oluwasemire commended the efforts and commitment of the officers.
He however enjoined members of the public to assist NPS in the
discharge of its duties by resisting such an act. As involvement in
these illicit behaviors, will defeat the aims and objectives of
imprisonment. He as well assured the that NPS will not relent in
its efforts in achieving its constituted responsibilities.
