National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) says it is planning to seek government’s approval to conduct drug tests on new students admitted into tertiary institutions across the country.
Chairman/CEO of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), retired General Buba Marwa, said this on Monday during a meeting with the agency’s commanders in the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) at the agency’s headquarters in Lagos.
He gave the commanders in all the states of the federation and special commands marching orders to mop up illicit drugs across the country.
“Ours is a national assignment. Drugs have littered everywhere; every community. We will lead the fight and we will succeed. Make no mistake about it, it’s a collective effort. Our maxim will be offensive action. This means we must go all out, constantly on the offensive, against the bad guys,” he said.
