Ajimobi also pleaded guilty to one count each of dangerous driving, using a motor vehicle on a road without third party insurance and breaching a non-molestation order.

On January 11, officers arrested Ajimobi and Abubakar during the execution of a warrant as part of a proactive investigation into drugs supply in Buckingham.

The investigation found Ajimobi was in charge of supplying cocaine and heroin in the Buckingham area, with Abubakar working for him, since August 3 last year.

Ajimobi also drove dangerously in Milton Keynes on September 19 last year. He refused to stop for police before driving on the wrong side of the road and at speed in an attempt to evade officers.

Ajimobi also breached a non-molestation order between 22 November and 1 December last year.

Ajimobi and Abubakar were charged on January 12.

Investigating officers PCs Jake Farrell and Levi Fensom said: “Drug-dealing will never be tolerated by Thames Valley Police so it is pleasing to see Ganiyu Dolapo Ajimobi and Sadiq Abubakar brought to justice for their offences.

“We will continue to disrupt and tackle drug-dealing in Buckingham and the wider force area, but we need the community’s support.

“Anyone with information about illegal drugs supply should report it to us via 101 or our website.

“Alternatively, you can provide information completely anonymously to Crimestoppers, which is totally independent to police, by calling 0800 555 111 or via its website.

“Ajimobi also led officers on a dangerous pursuit around Milton Keynes and breached a non-molestation order; behaviour which will also not be allowed on our patch and was reflected in his sentence.”
