A recently surfaced video of a multi-disciplinary team taking down a suspected Nigerian drug dealer is making the rounds online. Law enforcement was filmed moving in on the suspect sitting in a parked car in what appeared to be an industrial area.

The video was posted on the @MDNnewss X page on Friday, 13 December 2024. According to the caption, the operation happened in the Gauteng province.

"In a targeted operation in Pretoria (Tshwane) West, law enforcement officers arrested a Nigerian national suspected of drug dealing."

The 39-second clip shows a team comprising the Tshwane Metro Police Department (TMPD) Drug Unit swooping on the occupant of a Toyota Fortuna.

Several women, including TMPD Commissioner Yolanda Faro, are in the leading group, ed by officers armed with high-calibre weapons. Faro, a female officer and a male officer in civilian clothing are seen approaching the vehicle from the left — hitting the window as they bark orders for the suspect to get out.

"Open this door! Open it! Get out, get out!" the officers command. The suspect emerges seconds later before cops order him to lie down facedown on the floor. The man is then placed in handcuffs while his car is searched.

The clip garnered almost 490,000 views since it was published with over 4,000 comments.

Xenophobic Police Force of Orania

How can you openly drug dealing and then turn around to call Tinubu a drug dealer?
Is like when a new child is born on that side, they'll turn the baby upside down, hold out the baby's leg and hit the head on the floor real hard. Hence the flat Ed and rubbish opinions

They are just deceiving themselves, most people know that drug dealing is their main business and just disguise as traders.

LOOK BUST DRUG DEALERS, STOP TAKING DRUGS, NIGERIANS ARE WITH YOU.


WE DONT DRUG DEALERS, WE ALSO JAIL DEM OVER HERE FOR LIFE.


STOP USING IT TO STIGMATISE AN ENTIRE COUNTRY, IT WAS NEVER AN ENTIRE COUNTRY SELLING DRUGS IN SOUTH AFRICA. #


NOT EVEN ALL NIGERIANS IN SOUTH AFRICA ARE INVOLVED IN DRUG.


STOP THE XENOPHOBIA, ALL SOUTH AFRICANS ARE NOT DRUG ADDICTS.

No time for your sterile rants and primitive jabs.
You come from the only part of Africa afraid of self rule. Your moribund Odualand will expire in a week with your laughable receipts from cocoa sells. Parasites incapable of sustaining themselves without litching on the resources of others can not be seen questioning the mental stability of those who can..

The mentality of a bum who can't compete

Stop drug Dealing

This is exactly why we don't want them in our country..cry "xenophobia" all they want

God bless you.

This people are nothing without drug peddling. I strongly wish we part ways for good. Let everyone bears his father's name.

Please provide us with his name. I wonder what the next generation of Nigerians will think about our generation. We are often seen as scammers, drug dealers, and terrorists by the international community. It's surprising that Sudan has a better online image than Nigeria. I applied for a well-paying job online, ed the interview, only to lose the opportunity during the documentation process because Nigerians are not allowed for now.

Nice one

Did you see the drugs?

Good for them. It is better to eat bitter leave where there is love than eat the finest meat with enemies.

Say no to crime
