Yemen fighting pushes nearly 3,000 to Djibouti in less than a week: UN    Nearly 3,000 people have fled Yemen for Djibouti in less than a week as escalating violence drives growing displacement within the country and across its borders, the UN refugee agency said Friday. “Refugees continue to arrive by boat through Obock, Khor Angar, Moulhoule and Godoria after difficult journeys in small vessels,” UNHCR representative in Djibouti Sandrine Desamours told reporters in Geneva, Anadolu Agency reported. More than half of those crossing the Bab el-Mandeb Strait are women and children, while some families have been displaced for a second time after previously fleeing Yemen during the 2015 crisis and later returning. UNHCR is preparing for at least 10,000 new arrivals but warned that capacity is rapidly diminishing. Markazi refugee village, designed for 5,000 people, was already hosting more than 2,700 Yemenis and 1,500 Eritreans. More than 100,000 people have also been displaced ins...

RETIRED NDLEA DIRECTORS VISIT MARWA, PLEDGE CONTINUED SUPPORT FOR DRUG WAR. (PHOTOS). #PRESS RELEASE


 Retired NDLEA directors visit Marwa, pledge continued support for drug war


Retired Deputy Commanders General of Narcotics (DCGN) who served as directors in the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) have paid a visit to the Chairman/Chief Executive Officer Brig Gen Mohamed Buba Marwa (rtd) to congratulate him on the recent renewal of his tenure by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu while they pledged their continued support for the ongoing effort against substance abuse and illicit drug trafficking in the country.

Leading the team of nine retired directors on the congratulatory visit on Thursday 11th December 2025, the Agency’s former Director of Prosecution and Legal Services, DCGN Sunday Nbona Joseph (rtd) commended Marwa for his relentless efforts to transform NDLEA into a frontline drug law enforcement body now globally recognized and respected. 


He said the Agency, its workforce and Nigeria have a lot to gain from Marwa’s reappointment because of his commitment, hard work and leadership qualities. While expressing appreciation to President Tinubu for reappointing him for another tenure of five years, they assured of their preparedness to continue to offer advice, suggestions and support for continuous operational successes of the Agency.


“With your reappointment, we ask God to give you longevity and more ability and capacity to record many more achievements. Thank you very much for the opportunity that you have given to us at such short notice”, DCGN Sunday stated, after which they presented a giant congratulatory card to the NDLEA boss.


In his response, Marwa thanked them for the kind gesture and best wishes he had received from all of them including those who could not be physically present. According to him, “We are grateful to the president who deemed it fit to renew our tenure. I'm grateful to you all for being part of the reason for the renewal. Obviously, a CEO cannot on his own make those seizures, those arrests, those sensitizations and all the rehabilitation going on. No CEO will do that alone. It's all under commands which fall under your various directorates.


“I'm not saying anything that is not factual. I rely on the management team, which you have been, from the day I joined until when you left. So, I appreciate you also for all that you have contributed and continue to contribute. Now, I'm not under any delusion that everyone is happy that I came back for a second time, not least the criminal elements.”


He told them that a lot of successes had been recorded since they retired from the Agency and assured them that more will be attained in the coming days “because President Tinubu is giving NDLEA the full backing we need to achieve more.”
