The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) has called for closer and stronger collaboration with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

The agency said the measure would go a long way in tackling economic and financial crimes and other acts of corruption in the country.

The spokesperson of the EFCC, Dele Oyewale, said this in a statement on Tuesday in Abuja.

Oyewale said the new Kaduna State Commander of the NDLEA, Samaila Danmallam, made the call while on a familiarisation visit to the Kaduna Zonal Command of the EFCC.

Danmallam said he visited the command to explore ways by which the two agencies would collectively assist each other in the pursuit of their set out objectives and mandates.

“Collaboration with the EFCC is very relevant and important, because in the long run the fight against corruption will help boost the entire image and development of our country.

“So, the EFCC should be supported in this great service meant to improve the lives of Nigerians,” he said.

Responding, the Kaduna Zonal Acting Commander,  Assistant Commander of the EFCC, Aisha Abubakar appreciated the visit and recalled the long standing relationship between the EFCC and the NDLEA.

Abubakar pointed out that the two agencies have had course to assist each other in the course of investigating cases that fall within the mandate of either of them which led to the overall success recorded in such instances.

She further assured the new state commander of the commission’s continued commitment to render necessary support to all stakeholders where necessary to move Nigeria forward. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
