‘NDLEA SWAT’ has taken the spot light in today’s twitter trend as angry Nigerians question the Federal Government on what the security operative actually stands for.
“Dear @PoliceNG @PoliceNG_CRU @ndlea_nigeria what is NDLEA SWAT and why are they on the road with guns searching peoples phone? #WhatisNdleaSwat”, Popular Nigerian rapper, RUGGERDMAN(@RuggedyBaba)tweeted, among many Nigerians who have been venting their anger on the social media platform.
These questions are birthed from Ruggerdman’s picture making rounds on social media, allegedly showing a ‘NDLEA SWAT’ operative searching an unidentified man’s phone.
Another picture showed a scene where the operatives of the NDLEA SWAT were interrogating vehicle occupants.
Reacting to the post, Nigerians have this to say:
