Marwa in commending the partnership with the French Police in the drug war, asked for more support for the NDLEA.
Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Brig. Gen. Mohammed Buba Marwa (Retd), has commended the support from the Police Nationale (RAID) of France especially in the areas of training and equipment. This was as the NDLEA boss, asked for more support in achieving the targets of the organisation.
The NDLEA boss who spoke in his office in Abuja on Friday when the Police Attaché at the French Embassy in Nigeria, Emmanuel Verin, led a team of French VIP trainers including Cedric B. and Christophe J. who were in the country to train a number of NDLEA officers in special operations, paid him a courtesy visit.
Marwa, in his speech, said, “I would like to appreciate the French government for its support as one of our leading partners. We have received tremendous help from France not only in terms of training but also equipment. The support was capped with my recent visit to France where we received warm reception at all the institutions visited and the training promised was promptly organized. Were grateful for that and we are looking forward to more collaboration and support”.
In his response, Verin said, “We are proud to work with NDLEA because your officers and men are very smart and professional and that’s why you are getting results, hence our priority in terms of support for NDLEA is in the area of training. Our trainers who have been here to train your men are specialists and top in the field. Well do this for a very long time and were glad to work with you”.
Since his appointment as the chief executive officer of the NDLEA, Marwa has initiated some moves and recorded many feats which have repositioned the anti-narcotic agency for the task for which it was set. For his strides in the NDLEA, Marwa has earned President Buhari’s commendation.
