Marwa Makes Case For Amendment Of NDLEA Act

agency’s Act at the National Assembly will further boost the country’s fight against substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking.

The NDLEA boss who stated this in his opening remarks at the NDLEA special purpose committee conference in Abuja, also disclosed that some of the details of the new bill, which is in its final stage of being passed, will strengthen the hand of the agency and discourage trafficking of illicit substances because of the stringent punishment measures stipulated for drug offences.

While appreciating the committee members, who are experts in relevant fields that constitute an advisory group to support the work of the agency across the country for their contributions to the achievements of NDLEA under his leadership, Marwa said the time is now for well-spirited Nigerians to join the fight against the drug scourge, which though is not in every family but in every community.
