MONROVIA, LIBERIA – Director Abraham Kromah of the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA) has announced the discovery of a new drug, known as “Zombie,” in Liberia.
Col. Kromah revealed this development to reporters on Friday, May 4th, 2024, stating that the new drug was confiscated by a team of LDEA officers in the commercial hub of Red-light in Paynesville City. He emphasized that Zombie is more dangerous than Kush, another illicit substance, and noted that the LDEA is conducting an investigation to determine the origin of the drug.
The emergence of Zombie poses a significant concern for Liberia’s efforts to combat drug abuse and trafficking. The LDEA has recently ramped up its efforts to address the proliferation of illicit drugs in the country, and the discovery of this new substance underscores the ongoing challenges faced by law enforcement agencies.
Director Kromah urged the public to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activities related to drug trafficking or abuse. He emphasized the need for collaboration between law enforcement agencies and the community to effectively tackle the issue.
The Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency is working tirelessly to identify the sources of Zombie and prevent its further spread in the country. The discovery of this new drug highlights the ever-evolving nature of the drug trade and the importance of proactive measures to combat its negative impact on society.
Recently, officers of the LDEA conducted a raid on the Pennoh Building in Central Monrovia, a notorious hub for drug activity. This building is home to over 700 disadvantaged youths and is located on Center Street, near a cemetery. Additionally, the officers targeted ghettos in various areas, including Somalia Drive, Battery Factory community, Clara Town, and the vicinity of the old Defense Ministry on Benson and Buchanan Street intersection in Central Monrovia. This operation is part of the LDEA’s ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking and abuse in Liberia.
