The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) says its custody facilities are not necessarily punitive but serve as places where drug users are kept for counselling and rehabilitation.
The NDLEA Director of Media and Advocacy, Mr FemI Babafemi, told Newsmen in Lagos on Friday that such a place would help to wean users off drugs.
Babafemi said that in the wake of recurring cases of drug demand, the agency put efforts in saving susceptible persons from drug addiction.
He said that some drug users were merely victims and quite a number of factors including socio-economic were contributory to their plight.
