The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has attributed the reappointment of retired General Muhamed Buba Marwa (rtd), as the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NAFDAC) as a testimony to his sterling performance.
MURIC’s Executive Director, Professor Ishaq Akintola stated this on Saturday in a congratulatory statement on Marwa’s reappointment for another five-year term by President Bola Tinubu.
“The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) hereby felicitates, identifies and solidarises with General Marwa on his reappointment.
“We have no scintilla of doubt that this reappointment was motivated by the retired general’s sterling performance in office, his impressive pedigree and his unquestionable integrity.
“It will be recalled that General Muhammed Buba Marwa as the governor of Lagos State gave the state the tricycle option which became a unique panacea for its perrenial traffic quagmire.
“This initiative later cascaded down to other states of the federation and today the general’s name (Marwa) is synonymous with the tricycle everywhere in Nigeria.
“It was this indefatigable energy and burning passion for excellence and dedication that the retired general took to NDLEA.
“The result has been the numerous seizures and countless successful raids that turned the anti-drug agency into a nightmare for drug barons and their stooges and minions,” Akintola said.
He described Marwa as “a numero uno asset, a performer nulli secundus and a fearless chief executive primus inter pareil.”
While praying that Allah continues to protect and guide the NDLEA boss and those under him, MURIC urged him to remain focused, undaunted and relentless in his efforts to rid Nigeria of drug addiction and its attendant evil effects.
