About 253 officers are at the centre of a promotion crisis rocking Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA).
.
The officers are among the 287 in the chief narcotics agents (CNA) cadre who sat for a conversion course to the superintendent cadre in 2008, but only 30 allegedly passed and thus promoted.
.
The mass failure in the examination conducted by the Regional Academy for Drug Control (RADC), Jos caused disquiet in the NDLEA as it was alleged that most of the officers were deliberately failed to deny them promotion.
.
The officers argued that the agency's authorities could not justify the mass failure unless they were saying the instructors who took them through the one month course at the RADC were not good.
.
They are pleading with the Federal Ministry of Justice overseeing NDLEA to intervene and save their careers.
This is definately the least of things we need to happen right now so I hope the situation would be rectified soon. Too bad.
