Muntaka vows not to compromise in prosecuting drug suspects despite political pressure

Minister for the Interior, Mubarak Mohammed Muntaka, has vowed to remain steadfast in prosecuting drug suspects, regardless of political pressure. Speaking on Joy FM’s Super Morning Show, Muntaka pledged his ministry’s commitment to apprehending and trying individuals involved in illicit drug activities, including alleged kingpins, through the established legal process.

He urged the political class to support the fight against drugs, emphasizing that personal influence would not sway their approach. Muntaka stressed that the evidence against suspects would be thoroughly examined in court, and “crime is a crime” irrespective of the suspect’s status. His priority lies in dismantling drug operations and identifying those directing the trade.
