The Arewa Think Tank (ATT), a prominent non-partisan policy forum focused on security and development in Northern Nigeria and the nation as a whole, has praised President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for the strategic renewal of Brigadier-General Mohamed Buba Marwa (Rtd) as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
In a statement issued by the Convener of ATT, Muhammad Alhaji Yakubu, the group described the reappointment as a masterstroke that ensures continuity, stability, and the consolidation of the significant achievements made under Marwa’s leadership.
The group asserted that this decisive move signals the President’s unwavering commitment to protecting Nigeria’s youth and national security from the dangers of narcotics.
“By reappointing Brigadier-General Marwa, President Tinubu has demonstrated a clear focus on winning the war against drug abuse and trafficking,” Yakubu stated.
Marwa, who was first appointed in January 2021, is widely credited with revitalizing the NDLEA, transforming it into a proactive, intelligence-driven, and result-oriented agency.
The Nigerian power-generating company also announced plans to partner with the university on its 45th convocation scheduled for January next year.
Specifically, the company pledged to assist in the upgrade of the institution’s internal roads that were constructed in the 1960s and have never been upgraded.
