“People are spending lots of money to run mad” – Police PRO decries high rate of drug abuse in Delta

Spokesperson of the Delta State Police Command, DSP Bright Edafe, has decried the high rate of drug abuse in the state.

The PPRO stated this on Monday, November 6, 2023, when he shared photo of illicit drugs recovered from a supplier in Ughelli. 

“People are spending lots of money to run mad. I will keep saying this. We have to do our best to stop the abuse of the substance in the name of getting high,” he said. 

“These hard drugs were recovered from a transporter who was going to supply at Ughelli. I also heard that there is a high rate of drug/substance abuse in Oghara as well. We have to condemn this trend, otherwise, I don’t know where the leaders of tomorrow will come from if we use drugs to destroy our today. How do we see tomorrow like this?”
