NDLEA Chairman reveals what fuels insurgency in north-east - Daily Post Nigeria

“This is exactly what Nigerians have been taking and that is what fuels insurgency in the north-east because theatre commandants have testified to me that every Boko Haram camp they have overrun, they found paraphernalia of drug abuse, particularly tramadol.“That is not a data or a statistic we should be happy with.”“For a start, Mr President has authorised an upgrade on the staff strength of the agency.

“A staff strength of 5,000, without being told, is not a staff strength that can fight drugs the way it should be fought in Nigeria. “Let me just mention three local governments you know Mushin in Lagos, you know Fagge in Kano or even Nyanya in Abuja; I could deploy all of that strength to these places including me and there will still be some loopholes for trafficking and abuse to go on.
