64-year-old Oliseh explained that the pressure of having to take care of 23 children and five wives forced him to engage in the drug business.
According to him, he was introduced to the business by one Inspector Umukoro, who is now late.
“It was Inspector Umukoro, an Urhobo man from Delta, who introduced the business to me, and I embraced it. I was a former corporal in the police. I joined the force in 2002, but I was dismissed in 2009.
“It was frustration and poverty that forced me into the business, because I have to take care of 23 children and five wives, though two had left.”
The Ogun State Commissioner of Police, Abdulmajid Ali, said the suspects will be made to face the consequence of their actions if convicted.
