The Vanguard Against Drug Abuse (VGADA) has pledged to support the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) in the War Against Drug Abuse (WADA) by rehabilitating 10 drug addicts free of charge.

The Executive Director of VGADA, Dr Hope Omeiza, disclosed this when he led his team on a courtesy visit to the NDLEA Chairman, Brig Gen Buba Marwa (Rtd), on Monday in Abuja.

NAN reports that “VGADA Detox Centre” which began operation on February 4, 2022, is the treatment arm of VGADA, with a 100-bed space drug treatment and rehabilitation centre.

Omeiza explained that the centre was a mental health facility designed to provide treatment for drug addiction, mental illnesses and psychological disorders.

Responding, Marwa commended the organisation for the good works they had been doing, saying that the fight against drug abuse was not for the NDLEA alone, but all.
