A rat is said to have gotten into a cannabis exhibit storage room in one of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency’s commands (NDLEA).
On Monday, the NDLEA’s spokesman, Femi Babafemi, announced the development on his Twitter page.
He explained that the rat began acting strangely after sneaking into the exhibit room on Friday.
The rat, who, according to Babafemi, was high on cannabis, is seen spinning repeatedly.
According to the NDLEA, this should send a message to those who are involved in drug use.
“Stray rat gets high on C/S: So this rat on Friday strayed into the exhibit room where cannabis was stored in one of @ndlea nigeria commands and began to misbehave,” he wrote.
“Do I need to say more?” “The message is unmistakable.”
The NDLEA recently revealed that, despite being illegal, cannabis is the most abused illicit drug in the country, with at least 10.6 million Nigerians currently using it.
In Nigeria, cannabis is currently illegal.
Though there are advocates for legalization, the agency has stated that the risks outweigh the benefits.
