Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), Gen. Christopher Musa, says the Armed Forces of Nigeria will not shield any military personnel found culpable of illicit drug abuse and trafficking.

Musa gave the assurance when he visited the Chairman, National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Brig. Gen. Buba Marwa (rtd) yesterday in Abuja.

The CDS commended the NDLEA for the great turn around in the war against drug abuse and trafficking, saying this has positively changed the negative perception about Nigeria in the international community.

He pledged the continued support of the armed forces to NDLEA in its renewed fight against substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking.

According to him, the visit was to thank the agency for a job well done and pledge his total support.

“On our part, we will not shield anybody found guilty of drugs. We have made a number of arrests in the Northeast, our check points and all; we pick them up and prosecute them.

“Anyone found guilty of drugs must pay for it. We also try to do rehabilitation, and that is one aspect I will recommend to be taken seriously, because some people unknowingly get into drugs because of peer pressure.

“Drug abuse must be tackled holistically because that is very important, but if we allow it to take over the country, we will all suffer for it.

“To convey to our troops that we are together and working as a team, if there are issues especially with the members of the armed forces, please don’t hesitate and let us know.

“We will take adequate action. We don’t want drugs in our system,’’ he said.
