Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), Brig.-Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa (retd.), has called for stronger protection of the girl-child, saying addressing poverty, abuse and lack of education is critical to preventing drug abuse and exploitation among women and young people.
Marwa made the call on Saturday in Kaduna during the public presentation of In the Shadow of the Neem Tree, a book written by his daughter, Barrister Mariam Marwa-Abdu.
He said safeguarding the girl-child was essential to building stronger families and a more secure nation.
