The Initiative for Social Rights Concerns and Advancement (ISRCA), known as "No Justice, No Peace," has called on Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori to implement stringent actions against community leaders and security agencies involved in illicit drug activities across the state’s 25 local government areas. The organization stresses that leaders must take decisive measures against drug sales, particularly of dangerous substances like Colorado, which significantly impact youth behavior and contribute to societal issues.
ISRCA argues that holding these leaders accountable could help reduce crime, suggesting that many drug dealers are protected by community leaders and authorities. Such complicit behaviour has hindered the fight against drug trafficking and its escalating misuse. Given instances of drug-induced crimes, like the notorious case of a 23-year-old in Sapele, it’s crucial for the Delta State Government to address this menace seriously.
- Key Takeaways:
- Community leaders and security agencies in Delta State must be held accountable for supporting drug trafficking.
- The sale of harmful drugs such as Colorado negatively affects youths and society.
- Curbing drug dealers may reduce crime, given their connections to other criminal activities.
