The Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, (NDLEA) Brig. Gen. Buba Marwa (Rtd) has condoled with the family of the two-year-old boy, Ivan Omorhiakogbe who was killed by a stray bullet fired by an officer of the agency in Okpanam, near Asaba in July while raiding a notorious drug joint in the area.

During the operation, the deceased younger sibling, Eromosele was seriously injured in the eye.

Paying a courtesy visit on the governor of Delta, Marwa said he was in the state to condole with the family and also speak with stakeholders playing important roles in the fight against drug trafficking in the country.

According to him, the agency was working towards processing and fast tracking travel arrangements to sponsor the surviving brother’s eye treatment in America.

He said winning the war against drug trafficking was imperative because of its negative impact in the society, if left to fester.

He said hard drug scourge in Nigeria had become very high with over 15m drug users within the age bracket of 15 and 64 years, according to the relevant agency of the United Nations survey and called for the support and cooperation of the state government in the fight against the scourge.
