Quotes It is not going to be business as usual. It is a moving train. Please, let nobody stand in its front. The train will crush any such person. It is the task of NDLEA to stop all these unacceptable nonsense of drug abuse in Nigeria. The fight cannot be ours to fight alone. It must be a collective fight. We are not just arresting traffickers; we are liquidating their financial empires. Through the civil action in rem instrumentalities, assets reasonably suspected to be proceeds of drug crimes are aggressively targeted and forfeited to the Federal Government, effectively cutting off the lifeblood of these criminal networks. We recognise that behind every statistic of drug abuse is a human being. Cannabis is not a marginal issue in Nigeria - it is the most frequently used and widely available illicit drug in the country.
