President Muhammadu Buhari has lauded the recent successful operation of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency NDLEA leading to the smashing of an international drug syndicate and recovery of 1,855 kilogram of cocaine.
The President’s spokesman, Femi Adesina, said in a statement in Abuja that the president made his feelings known when he originated a telephone call to Chairman of the NDLEA, Buba Marwa, from New York.
President Buhari said that the news of the recovery gladdens his heart.
The NDLEA had announced the “highest cocaine seizure” worth over 278 million dollars and arrest of drug barons including a foreigner in a major operation lasting two days across different locations in Lagos.
