Ameh in his remarks explained that E-Money being a key-player in the maritime industry, commands a massive social media followership.
He said: “WADA is an advocacy programme designed by Retired Brig -.Gen. Buba Marwa, the Chairman of NDLEA, to fight against illicit-drug consumption and trade in the country.
“Being an influencer on social media is a veritable medium to influence many positively. You are by this decoration enjoined to lead the charge against drug abuse and illicit drug trafficking.
“The maritime industry where you are a key player is being invaded by unscrupulous drug merchants to ship in drugs.
