understand is why this ex-lawmaker's name was never mentioned in the
report. Find it below...
“Following intelligence report of suspicious illicit activities by the ex-lawmaker, the agency after several months of monitoring, finally arrested him,” Zungeru said.
The commander commended the courts in Yola for their demonstration of professionalism in the acceleration and prosecution of drug suspects.
He mentioned shortage of personnel and patrol vehicles as the major challenges facing the agency in Adamawa.
The NDLEA has nine area offices in Adamawa.
