The French government has assured the leadership of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) of more robust support in the areas of training, capacity building and logistics, to further boost the operational capability of the anti-narcotics agency in its ongoing effort to curb the scourge of substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking.
The assurance was given Tuesday during a meeting between a French delegation led by the Director, Security and Defence Cooperation, at the French Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs, Lt. Gen. Regis Colcombet, and the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Brig. Gen. Buba Marwa (Rtd) at the agency’s headquarters in Abuja.
