We need Government’s support-NDLEA

The Commandant National Drugs Law enforcement agency Kano state command, Dr. Ibrahim Abdul, said Kano State Government is not assisting the agency in terms of infrastructural development, though the incumbent Governor made promises during the unveiling of illicit drugs arrested by the agency early this year, but yet, the promises were not fulfilled.

He further stated, even when the government gave mobility to security agencies they never give them one.

The command said Whenever they have any operation in all their 7 zonal offices in Kano state, they have to come and borrow vehicles in the command. How do you think the fight against drug abuse and illicit trafficking of substance will be successful? He rhetorically asked.

In a remark chairman of the foundation NWYAF,  Comr. Mahmud Garba Shawai, asked the Commandant, why does the agency looks partially dilapidated with poor infrastructure and inadequate facilities in running the affairs of the agency? Why NDLEA don’t establish divisions across the 44 local government of Kano state?

Dr. Ibrahim Abdul sought the intervention of the foundation in disseminating their condition to the appropriate bodies that may assist the agency.

Comrade Mahmud Garba Shawai told the commandant that they were in his office to strike a cordial relationship between the agency and the foundation.
