Kano State Government has sought the assistance of the National Drugs Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, in tackling drug menace in the state.
The State Commissioner for Finance, Dr Ibrahim Jibril, made the appeal in Kano on Monday while receiving the state Commandant of the NDLEA, Mr Abubakar Ahmad.
He pleaded with NDLEA to establish its unit within the Audu Bako Secretariat complex, Kano, to curb drug peddling and abuse.
“The issue of drug abuse among youths in Kano is alarming. We need NDLEA’s presence to mitigate security challenges,” Jibril said.
The commissioner emphasized the state government’s strategies to tackle drug-related problems, including reactivating 21 skills institutes to engage youths productively.
Speaking earlier, Ahmad praised the state governor’s commitment to combating drug abuse as evident in his visit to the Kiru reformatory.
Ahmad also expressed gratitude to the state government’s support in completing and equipping the abandoned Drug Rehabilitation Centre at the NDLEA Command headquarters.
He said that the collaboration would work in combating drug abuse and its consequences in Kano State.
