Gen Ajunwa emphasised that abuse of drugs amongst military personnel and their family members has eaten very deep which if not urgently addressed head long, could lead to a serious catastrophe. He Advised the participants to be careful in making decisions as such could make or mar their future 


He further encouraged parents to put in more efforts in their parental responsibilities, ensuring a good upbringing for their children by keeping close watch on them, saying, it takes a collective approach to curbing this ugly trend.
