LDEA DEPUTY DIRECTOR GENERAL DISMISSES RUMORS OF “ZOMBIE DRUG” IN LIBERIA

Date:

MONROVIA – The Deputy Director General of Operations for the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA), Hassan Fadiga, has addressed recent concerns about the presence of a so-called “Zombie Drug” in Liberia. In a statement posted on his social media page today, Fadiga clarified that there is no evidence to support these claims.

“We have received several calls regarding the existence of the ‘Zombie Drug’ in our country. As Deputy Director General of Operations for the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA), I want to emphatically state that there is no evidence whatsoever to support these claims,” Fadiga wrote. He further assured the public and international partners that the LDEA has thoroughly investigated the allegations and found no credible information or evidence to suggest the presence of the “Zombie Drug” in Liberia.
