Babafemi in the statement cautioned that some recent seizures revealed hard drugs being disguised as everyday treats.
The post read, “Narco-trend: Parents, please pay attention to those substances that look like sweet, chocolate, candy, or biscuit in the pockets and bags of your children,” Babafemi wrote.
