Marwa gave the commendation recently when he paid a visit to the Headquarters Theatre Command OPHK Maimalari Cantonment Maiduguri.
He said his visit to Theatre Command was to seek more collaboration and support of the military in the offensive against illicit drug use, peddling as well as to deny insurgents the availability of drugs.
The NDLEA boss noted that working together with the military would extinguish the scourge in Nigeria.
He assured the Command of NDLEAโs readiness to sensitize troops on the dangers of illicit drugs and called for a period drugs test for troops.
Marwa further commended troops for their doggedness and commitment to duty.
