The Public Accounts Committee of the Senate has commended the Chairman and Chief Executive of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), retired Brigadier General Mohamed Buba Marwa for providing good leadership for the anti-narcotics Agency in its onslaught against drug abuse and illicit drug trafficking in Nigeria.

Chairman of the Committee, Senator Mathew Urhoghide who gave the commendation during the Public Hearing on Service Wide Vote at the Senate Complex Abuja, said Marwa’s leadership at NDLEA has changed the country’s drug war narrative both locally and internationally.

The Senate Committee Chairman said it is now daily visible and glaring to all Nigerians that the NDLEA is not only barking but equally biting deep drug barons and dealers that have for years remained invisible and untouchable.

In his response, Marwa commended the Committee, the Senate and the entire National Assembly for providing the necessary legislative support for the Agency to achieve its vision and set goals.
