Kindiki targets Coast drug barons in substance abuse crack downInterior Cabinet Secretary, Kithure Kindiki. PHOTO/PrintInterior Cabinet Secretary, Kithure Kindiki (pictured) has announced government plans to embark on a crackdown on drug barons in the coastal region. Speaking during the Coast Region Conference on Illicit Alcohol, Narcotic Drugs, and Other Psychotropic Substances, the CS said that the menace of illicit liquor, narcotic drugs, and psychotropic substances was a National Security challenge and posed a threat to the survival of the future generation. They deliberated on mechanisms to crack down on manufacturers, transporters, sellers, and peddlers of illicit liquor, narcotic drugs, and other substances in the Coast. “NACADA should pull up socks because the report they have given does not cover all the drug hot spots in the Coast Region,” he added.
