A 114 year old man has been arrested in south-west Nigeria for owning around one hundred bags containing cannabis, reported the Nigerian police on Saturday.
Sulaimon Adebayo, who denies that he owns the drugs, was arrested at the start of the week in his home in Odeda, in the Ogun state, said the director of the Nigerian agency for combating drugs, Chinyere Obijuru. The old man hid the drugs behind his house. It is not known if the drugs served for his own personal use or if he was really holding them for someone else.
