He noted that It is not going to be business as usual, adding that: “It is a moving train. Please, let nobody stand in its front. The train will crush any such person.

The federal government policy on agriculture is a window for them to leverage on.
“As I made it known in my inaugural address here at the headquarters last week, the task ahead is well spelt out even as it is onerous. Drug abuse and illicit drug trafficking have become the nation’s worst nightmare with more than 14.3 million Nigerians involved in drug use, according to the UNODC drug survey 2018.
