 STATEHOUSE PRESS STATEMENT PRESIDENT TINUBU'S MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE TO CHIMAMANDA ADICHIE AND HER FAMILY   With a deep sense of grief, I condole with Ms Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, her husband, Dr Ivara Esege, and the entire family on the passing of their son, Nkanu Nnamdi.   As a parent myself who has suffered the loss of a loved one, no grief is as devastating as losing a child.   I empathise with the family at this difficult time, and I mourn this sad loss with them.   Ms Adichie is a literary icon who has brought joy and light to many homes globally, and I pray she and her family find strength in the Almighty in this trying hour.   My prayers are with the family.   Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Federal Republic of Nigeria January 8, 2026

Leaders of the Nigerian Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO) have pledged to work with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to curb the use of truck and passenger vehicles to traffic illicit drugs as part ongoing offensive action against substance abuse and trafficking across Nigeria.

The commitment was made on Thursday 24th July 2025 by the National President of NARTO, Alhaji Yusuf Lawal Othman when he led other leaders of the transport union on a courtesy visit to the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer of NDLEA, Brig Gen Mohamed Buba Marwa (Rtd) at the Agencys National Headquarters in Abuja.

Commending Marwas courage, vision, and patriotism in the leadership of the Agency, Othman said this visit today is not just ceremonial; it is purposeful and timely. It reflects our deep appreciation of NDLEAs efforts and our readiness as a key stakeholder in the road transport sector to align with your mission.


NARTO is acutely aware of the burden we carry. Our truck and passenger vehicles traverse every region of the country, serving as the arteries of commerce and connectivity. However, we also recognize that these same routes are occasionally exploited by criminal elements to traffic illicit substances. We at NARTO are committed to reversing that narrative. We believe that collaboration between our association and the NDLEA is both necessary and urgent, and we are ready to play our part.


To achieve the success of the collaboration, Othman proposed sensitization and training of NARTO drivers and transport operators on identifying and reporting suspicious cargo or behavior; establishment of joint intelligence-sharing mechanisms to monitor drug trafficking routes and tactics; deployment of NDLEA liaison officers at major NARTO parks and depots across the federation, and public awareness campaigns, using our national footprint to educate drivers and passengers on the dangers of drug trafficking and abuse.
