Nigerian comedian, vlogger, and content creator Jubril Oladapo Gbadamosi, better known as Officer Woos, has refuted claims that he was arrested for drug trafficking.
He rubbished the reports on Saturday in a statement issued by his legal representatives, Versed Attorneys.
Officer Woos, who recently ventured into bread production, was reacting to online reports which surfaced on Thursday claiming the National Agency for Food and Drug Administration and Control (NAFDAC) had arrested him for allegedly importing a substantial quantity of bread and brownies laced with cocaine from Mexico.

According to him, the news is false, defamatory, and an attempt to damage “his reputation, his brand, and professional standing”.
While threatening to sue those involved, Officer Woos demanded an “immediate and unconditional retraction from all pages, handles, and individuals responsible for the publication and circulation of these false statements”.
“Our client further demands that a public apology be issued on the same platforms on which the defamatory statements were published, within forty-eight (48) hours from the date of this statement,” the statement further added.
As at the time of filing this report, NAFDAC and its sister agency, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), were yet to officially confirm or debunk the news of Officer Woos’s arrest.
