ABSTRACT

This research work is on the role of government regulatory agencies on national developments the purpose of this research work is to know the impact or contribution the economy has made to lives of the public and also to know in brief the problems and challenges facing the regulatory agencies (NDLEA). Research questions was posed, same as hypothesis to test the degree of relationship between the two variable. In determination of the sample the Yaro Yamane formula was used to determine the sample of the study. The researcher uses simple percentage score to analyze the data collected for the work and the chi square was used to test the hypothesis. Results attained shows that the NDLEA have only impacted fairly in the socio-economic development of the people, and it was also deduced that a major constraint impeding the attainment of its objectives hinders on lack of autonomy and finally a better way to carry out its function was proffered which includes public enlightenment campaigns on the dangers of drug trafficking and drug abuse among others. The study recommends that   the country laws on drug trafficking should serve as enough, law prohibiting drug trafficker activities and quackery, the Government should also enhance a proper pay system as this will help in the motivation of most Government agencies personnel in the discharge of their duties and there should be need for more proactive approach on the part of the other agencies of government in addressing the issues of selling traffickers and use of drugs.

CHAPTER ONE

INTRODUCTION

  • BACKGROUND TO THE STUDY

The natural drug law enforcement agency is Nigerian’s agency that regulate and eliminates the growing, processing, manufacturing, selling, exporting and trafficking of hard drug. It is a parastatal of federal ministry of health.

NDLEA was established through decree 48 of 1989 and the decree prescribed stiffer penalties for convicted offenders section II (2a) of the decree provides a jail term of not less than 45 years for “any person who conspires with, aids, abets, councils or attempts of council” any of these offences. Though the agency was given legal instructions to operate, effective policing of drugs did not commence until 1990. Although Babangida had abolished the death penalty for convicted drug dealer, by the end of the decade there were public calls to restore it.

Stricter security measures were introduce to Lagos international airport in 1989, and a plan was instituted in august 1989 to control black market activities.

The NDLEA maintains a presence at international airport making regular seizure of hard drugs from individuals, countries, and conducts raids at seaports and border check points. efforts to eradicates cannabis cultivation focused on the destruction of isolated plant. The NDLEA has attempted to shift the focus of operations from the arrest of the countries to the prosecution of controlling members of article and money laundering organization.

Despite counter narcotic effort by NDLEA increasingly large quantities of drug pour, Nigerian’s extensive land borders was poorly managed and played by corruption, to help plot the activities it was agreed that fearless leadership was not to be comprised. Mr. Fidelis Oyakilome then a police commissioner and former governor of river state were assigned the prevailing responsibility of becoming the agencies first chairman. Although NDLEA efforts have created at least some risk that countries may be caught at the airports, trafficking networker rely increasing on buck shipments by land and sea to smuggle drug into and out of the country.

In common pretence, the agency was saddled with the responsibilities of controlling, interdicting and intercepting the trafficking peddling and usage of hard drug in public. And sensitices on the efforts of hard drugs on nations and on the people.
