MURIC lauds Tinubu over reappointment of Marwa as NDLEA boss
The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has lauded President Bola Tinubu’s reappointment of Retired Gen. Muhammed Buba Marwa, as the chairman of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency ( NDLEA).
The Executive Director, MURIC, Prof. Ishaq Akintola stated this in a statement on Saturday in Abuja.
Akintola also felicitated Marwa, over his reappointment as NDLEA boss for another five years, saying that the reappointment was motivated by his sterling performance in office.
“The chairman of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), General Muhammed Buba Marwa (rtd), has been reappointed for another five year term.
“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,” he said.
Akintola added:”General Marwa (rtd) is 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, we urge the general to remain focused, undaunted and relentless in his efforts to rid Nigeria of drug addiction and its attendant evil effects.”
