Drug Tests Should Cover Political Office Holders, Aspirants Says National Association of Nigerian Students
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) has urged the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency to extend its proposed mandatory drug test initially targeted at corps members and prospective couples to include political office holders and aspirants. The association commended the initiative as a preventive strategy against drug abuse but emphasized that such measures should also apply to individuals in leadership positions to ensure fairness and accountability while calling on the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency and the National Assembly to work together to implement legislation mandating drug integrity tests for politicians, asserting that a drug-free leadership would set a strong example and build public trust.
