The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) on Thursday took journalists on a site inspection of a massive, industrial-scale methamphetamine laboratory in Ogun state.

The NDLEA had dismantled the facility, whose value it estimates at N480 billion, in May.

During inspection of the laboratory, nestled in a remote forest in Ijebu Ode, the suspects were paraded by officers of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCoS) before being subjected to a special court hearing.
