The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has warned club owners and fun seekers to stop organizing or attending drug parties. The agency described such gatherings as criminal acts that violate Nigerian law. This warning followed a major raid at Proxy Night Club in Lagos, where operatives arrested over 100 people.
NDLEA Raids Proxy Night Club
NDLEA operatives stormed Proxy Night Club on Akin Adesola Street, Victoria Island, Lagos, on October 25, 2025. The raid continued into the early hours of October 26. Officers arrested the club owner, Mike Eze Nwalie Nwogu, also known as Pretty Mike, his manager, Joachin Millary, and more than 100 attendees. According to NDLEA, the organizers promoted the event with flyers inviting people to join the illegal gathering.
Drug Parties Are Criminal Acts
The agency stressed that any gathering for using or distributing illicit drugs is a crime under the NDLEA Act. It noted that such events fuel youth drug abuse and endanger public health. NDLEA warned that drug parties weaken national security and public safety efforts.
How the Operation Unfolded
Before the raid, undercover agents gathered intelligence and purchased drugs inside the club. They monitored the party for four hours before taking action. NDLEA officers recovered 384.882 kilograms of Canadian Loud and other substances. While attendees were counselled and released, Pretty Mike and his manager remain in custody.
NDLEA’s Warning to Property Owners
NDLEA cautioned hotel and club owners against hosting illegal parties. It warned that properties used for such crimes could be seized by the Federal Government. The agency urged parents, religious leaders, and citizens to report drug-related activities and help protect communities.
Conclusion
The NDLEA’s swift action in Lagos sends a clear message to offenders. The agency remains committed to fighting drug abuse, enforcing the law, and safeguarding young Nigerians from the dangers of illicit substances.
