By Christopher Oji
Students of Niger College, Benin City, received a strong warning against drug abuse on Tuesday as the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) Edo State Command and the Edo State Government took their anti-drug campaign directly to them.
The sensitisation programme was held ahead of the 2026 International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, observed globally on June 26, with this year’s United Nations theme: “The World Drug Problem: Persisting Issues, New Challenges, Innovative Responses.”
Addressing the students, Edo State NDLEA Commander, Mitchell Ofoyeju, delivered a presentation titled “Choose Your Future: Say No to Drugs.”
