The operatives of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, have arrested socialite Mike Eze Nwalie Nwogu and others following an alleged drug party.
The operatives of the agency, in the early hours of Sunday, 26th October, raided Proxy Nightclub at 7 Akin Adesola Street, Victoria Island, where a drug party was allegedly going on.
A statement released by NDLEA spokesperson Femi Babafemi said that over 100 suspects, including the owner of the club, Pretty Mike, were arrested and taken into custody for screening. Cartons of illicit substances, including Loud and laughing gas, were recovered from suspects at the party and the club’s store.
Babafemi said the raid followed intelligence about the drug party. NDLEA operatives, who were embedded in the party between 11 pm on Saturday, 25th October, however, disrupted the gathering at 3 am on Sunday, 26th October, based on Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
The news has generated mixed reactions online.

In August, Pretty Mike had, in an emotional video, opened up about the loss of his father. He said his father was the man who instilled a lot of love in him. Using the opportunity to pass a message to the public, he preached about peace, forgiveness and the dangers of glorifying negativity online.
