Popular singers Zinoleesky and Mohbad have been arrested by men of the Nigeria Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA). The singers, who are signed under Marlian records, were arrested after a midnight raid on their Lagos residence.
In a viral Instagram video, the agents were seen hitting the artists, harassed and manhandled by the men of the agency.
At some point, the men of the agency handcuffed Zinolessky and pushed him away with some other young men in the house where the arrest was made.
Their arrest was confirmed by the NDLEA spokesman, Femi Babafemi, who said Cannabis and Molly were recovered by operatives during the raid.
"Yes, they have been arrested because we had reliable information that they were in possession of drugs. We moved in on them and recovered drugs. That is why five of them were arrested; three males and two females," the spokesperson for the NDLEA told DailyTimes.
"When their house was searched we found in their possession molly and cannabis. The investigation is still ongoing but we have to trace where they are getting these substances from."
