Eschew Drug Abuse – Owoeye

The need for collective cooperation between stakeholders to address the challenges posed by illicit drug abuse amongst the Youth, has again been stressed.

The Speaker, Osun State House of Assembly, Mr Timothy Owoeye made the call on his Twitter handle to mark this year’s International Day Against Drug Abuse and illicit Trafficking. 

Mr Owoeye stressed the need for more awareness for members of the public on the dangers inherent in drug abuse and to lay emphasis on safe guarding the future of the Nation.

While lauding the activities of The Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA in curbing the menace, the Speaker urged  personnel of the agency to intensify more on their duties.

The United Nations, UN, had set aside 26th June every year to campaign against Drug Abuse and illegal drug trade across the world.
