An aide to former Delta State Governor, Ossai Ovie Success, has vowed to drag the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) to court should he see Nigerian Music star, Afeez Fashola, aka Naira Marley or any artist on his record label, smoking in any of his music videos.
It was earlier reported that controversial Nigerian singer warned fans and Nigerian youths to shun drug abuse.
The singer paid a visit to the Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) chairman, Buba Marwa, at the agency’s headquarters in Abuja yesterday, August 17, where he declared his support for the fight against substance abuse.
Naira Marley, in a video shared by the NDLEA spokesperson, Femi Babafemi, via Twitter, urged Nigerians to stop all substance abuse, stressing it poses a threat to health.
He stated that drug abuse pushes people to commit crimes, adding he has decided to join the NDLEA campaign to stop drugs on the streets.
Success, who took to Facebook, however, said he would not hesitate to sue NDLEA should he see the musician or any of his artists smoking in any of their music videos.
The former aide questioned if the musician had quit ‘smoking’ before being considered to make the declaration.
He stated, “I will sue NDLEA if I see Nairamarley sm*king on his music video or on ground and if any of artistes signed to his record label are seen smoking.
“I hope @officialnairam1 has stopped smoking before being paid by NDLEA to campaign against smoking and drugs.
“I am watching him carefully because I am happy with this campaign.”
