“In drug supply reduction, our interdiction efforts yielded unparalleled results, which as of December 31, 2021, were as follow: Arrest of 12,306 suspects, including seven drug barons; conviction of 1,400 offenders; pending 1,502 cases in court; seizure of over 3.

Marwa stated this while answering questions from journalists during a press conference in Abuja to mark his first year anniversary in the saddle of the agency. Marwa stated, “If you look at the preponderance of the dealers in drugs, I’m not saying anything new, but the South-East has the predominance and that’s a fact. Who are the Boko Haram people? I know they are not Yoruba and I know they are not people from Edo; but if you go to the North-West and ask who the bandits are, I know they are not from Cross River or from Lagos. If you ask the people doing the human trafficking, the women, you know from where.
