Conspiracies at the Liberia Drug Enforcement Agency have linked the disorder and chaos at the agency to an uncaught suspect in the famous 100 m drug busts that were allegedly protected during the former regime.
Monrovia, Monday, June 10, 2024—This paper has gathered that ongoing agitations among top officers at the Liberian Drug Enforcement Agency (LDEA) are said to be deeper than what is in the public domain.
Sources within the corridors of the LDEA informed this paper over the weekend that at the center of this bitter dispute is a suspect who was left untouched in the famous US100 million drugs bust at the TRH Trading Corporation, a conglomerate of AJA Group rented warehouse facility off the Japanese Freeway in Monrovia on Saturday, October 1, 2022.
The Lebanese Businessman, whose name is withheld, was linked to the US100 million drug but left off the hook by the former government, he is said to have made some undisclosed gestures to the top officers as a way of persuading them to turn a blind eye to his operations here.
The refusal of this offer is alleged to have triggered the ongoing bad blood between LDEA Director General Abraham S. Kromah and his two deputies, Col. Gbawou Kowou and Col. Hassan Fadiga.
The latter is said to be fighting to oust the former to gain control of the LDEA, which, by creating it, gives more power to the director general.
The source said the fight that went viral over the existence of a zombie drug in the country was just a tip of the deep routed sentiments between the men at the agency.
On Monday, 3 June 2024, Col. Kromah and Col. Fadiga reportedly engaged in a fight following their disagreement about the existence of a narcotic substance called zombie.
Social media was inundated with reports of an alleged altercation between the two top officers at the LDEA. The tension erupted between the senior law enforcement officials within the LDEA facility in Sinkor after both men shared varying views about the zombie drugs.
The conflict was said to have started after Col. Fadiga allegedly rubbished the existence of the zombie drugs in Liberia.
The Liberia National Police (LNP) had to intervene to calm the situation between the two senior officers at the LDEA.
According to. Mr. Fadiga, LDEA Officers have thoroughly investigated and determined that there are no zombie drugs found in Liberia.
