The State Commander, National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in Ogun State, Mrs Ibinabo Archie-Abia, has advised youths to stay away from drugs abuse in the New Year.
This, she said, would help them to take back the country and place Nigeria in its rightful place among the comity of nations.
Archie-Abia, who gave the advice in an interview with The Tide source in Ota, Ogun State, implored Nigerian youths to speak up against substance abuse and drug trafficking in order to curb the menace.
She called on the youth to be courageous to exercise their civil rights and responsibilities in the forthcoming polls.
“They should exercise their civic franchise responsibly by voting the right candidates into office as their future depends on good governance,” she said.
Archie-Abia also advised the youth to shun thuggery, violence and money bags who would buy them for a fee to do their bidding and afterward discard them.
She added that this year’s elections would be sharpened by the Nigerians youth and stressed the need for them not to trade away their destinies for a morsel of bread or smoke.
