The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has decorated 15 officers newly promoted in Ondo State, admonishing them to work harder.
NDLEA Commandant in the state, Kayode Raji, congratulated the officers on a well-deserved career progression.
Raji explained that about 400 men in the agency benefited from the promotion exercise nationwide in 2022.
He said the command delayed the ceremony because it waited for the national headquarters to kick-start the event.
“Promotion for hard work comes with more work, so please do not relent,” he said.
The NewsZenith reports that the Agency promoted eight Chief Narcotics Agents (CNA) to the rank of Assistant Superintendent of Narcotics (ASN II).
It elevated two Assistant Superintendents of Narcotics (ASN1) o the Deputy Superintendent of Narcotics (DSN).
