Operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have arrested a wanted 59-year-old drug baroness, Bridget Oghenekevwe Emeka, a.k.a Mama in Delta State.
She was arrested on Sunday 15th May at her residence “where she cooks and distributes Crack Cocaine, Methamphetamine and other illicit substances.”
