Naira Marley’s Unveiling: Tonto Dikeh Drags NDLEA

The singer, captured in a video, could be heard urging fans and all Nigerian youths “to stop doing drugs because it isn’t good for their wellbeing.”

Tonto Dikeh, the actress-turned-politician, has reacted to the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency’s (NDLEA) decision to enlist singer Naira Marley in its campaign against drug consumption.

After the agency shared pictures of Naira Marley’s visit to its Abuja headquarters on Thursday, she labeled them as the “most unserious set of people” and vowed to unfollow them right away.

Naira Marley visited the headquarters of the federal law enforcement organization, where he met with Brig. Gen. Mohamed Buba Marwa (Retd), the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer, and other officials while expressing his support for the War Against Drug Abuse.

The singer, captured in a video, could be heard urging fans and all Nigerian youths “to stop doing drugs because it isn’t good for their wellbeing.”

He continued: “Let us stop substance abuse in any form. I have keyed into this campaign to support NDLEA to stop drugs on the street.

“Please join us. It’s really not good. It makes you go back into crime. It does a lot of things to you. Thank you very much”, he added.

Dikeh had signified interest to work with the agency several months ago in a social media post where she expressed her willingness to avail herself of a drug test and partnering them to battle illicit substance abuse.

However, it didn’t act on her proposal.

With the latest development, she suggested that her contempt was against the government and not Naira Marley.

She described the development as the ‘biggest embarrassment from any government agency/drug law enforcement agency’.

She challenged the federal law enforcement agency to chat or pick her up over her public outburst but advised it did so courteously else there’d be a problem.

The mother of one wrote: “I don’t involve myself in bullshit, especially other people’s bullshit…

“This I must say is the biggest embarrassment from any government agency/drug law enforcement agency…

“I would like to say more but I’ll wait for @ndlea_nigeria to pick me up for an interview/Drug test/ or just a chat on why I’m bold enough to call them out!!!!

“Sirs/ma’s I’M READY. You know my address, I’ll ask you do it respectfully otherwise we’ll have a PROBLEM…..

“And if I’m replied I’ll gladly respond disrespectfully…… I have absolutely nothing wrong with the said artist but the government………”
