Nigerian street pop artist Naira Marley has once again been making headlines as he joined the NDLEA in its effort to combat drug and alcohol abuse.

The well-known performer has been named the newest War Against Drug Abuse (WADA) campaign ambassador by the Nigeria Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).

Naira Marley has been in skirmishes with Nigerian government agencies in the past.

On the same day that his 2019 hit song, “Am I A Yahoo Boy,” was released, he was detained by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

A few days after leaving jail, he released his popular song “Soapy,” which discussed convicts’ sexual tendencies.

However, the 17th of August 2023 sees Naira Marley on the right side of the law. The chairman of the NDLEA hosted the artiste as he comes to pledge his support for the War Against Drug Abuse (WADA) advocacy campaign.

The spokesperson for the Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) reported this development on his X profile page. This announcement was also posted on the NDLEA’s official X page.

Nigerian ace rapper, singer, and songwriter, Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, has reacted to NDLEA burning cocaine worth N194 billion in Lagos.

The rapper was one of many Nigerians who reacted to recent NDLEA activity, but he is not persuaded by the alleged destruction planned by the NDLEA.

In a warehouse in Ikorodu, Lagos, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) recently found 1.8 tonnes of cocaine, which is estimated to be worth a staggering N19 billion Naira on the black market. On Tuesday, September 27, 2022, the agency released videos and photos showing that it had set the cocaine on fire.
