The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) says it is considering a new policy that will make it mandatory for single ladies to get a drug test before they get married.
NDLEA Chairman, Mohammed Mustapha Abdalla, said this in Maiduguri, Borno state capital. While burning some illegal substances, Abdalla said during the usual premarital tests couples do before getting married, a compulsory drug test should be done. This according to him is because young girls of today get very addicted to illegal drugs. He also said that young male youths are the main part of the country’s population that that traffic illegal drugs and now, teenage girls and older married women have joined in the trend.
