Naira Marley Advocates for Drug-Free Youth During NDLEA Visit in Abuja

Prominent Afrobeats singer, Naira Marley, has advised his followers, commonly known as Marlians, and the young people of Nigeria to avoid drugs and substances detrimental to their health.

The artist behind “Issa Goal” shared this counsel during his trip to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) main office in Abuja on Thursday.

During his visit, Naira Marley spoke with the NDLEA’s Chief Executive Officer, Buba Marwa, expressing his backing for the movement against drug misuse.

He Said:

“I will like to urge my fans the Marlians and all the Nigerian youths to stop doing drugs because it is not good for your wellbeing. Let us stop substance abuse in any form,” Naira Marley said in a video tweet by the agency.

“I have keyed into this campaign to support the NDLEA to stop drugs in the streets. Please, join us. It is really not good; it makes you go back into crime; it does a lot of things to you.”

Naira Marley hit the spotlight following a fraud case with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

Last year, the singer faced an 11-count charge bothering on card fraud.
