Who is Ahmadu Giade?
Ahmadu Giade, a retired deputy commissioner of police, was appointed chairman of the Nigerian National Drug Law Enforcement Agency in November 2005. He replaced Bello Lafiaji, who was dismissed by President Obasanjo due to allegations of corruption.
Speaking in October 2008 before a United Nations committee discussing crime prevention, criminal justice and international drug control, Giade said that one of the most significant problems faced in Nigeria was the misuse of cannabis. Nigeria needed the help of the international community to fully tackle the situation. In a 2009 paper he said adverse consequences of cannabis cultivation include political instability, drug addiction, money laundering, health problems, criminality and untimely death. He has described drug barons as agents of death who always work towards a failed state wherever they are allowed to operate.
