Nigeria has been elected to host the next conference of Heads of Drug Law Enforcement Agencies Africa (HONLEA) in 2023.

This was the unanimous decision of the regional network at the close of its 2022 annual meeting in Nairobi, Kenya, at the weekend.

NDLEA spokesperson, Femi Babafemi, said the move by other heads of anti-narcotics agencies in Africa to have Nigeria host the 2023 conference followed the country’s good relationship with others on the continent and NDLEA’s exemplary performance in the renewed fight against substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking.

He also said chairman/chief executive officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Brig. Gen. Mohamed Marwa (retd), led the Nigerian delegation in presentations on every item of the agenda for discussion, where he shared the country’s experience and successes so far recorded in the drug war as a result of bilateral and multi-lateral cooperation with other stakeholders in Nigeria and partners at both regional and international levels.
