Before the early 1980s, drug offenses were a small problem in Nigeria. Nigeria' s most pressing social issue is politics, although heroin and cocaine trafficking has emerged in the last decade as a major social issue.

New markets for raw materials and delivery networks have emerged to service the pharmaceutical industry during this time period. Because of this, Nigeria has been delisted by the United States and Nigerians traveling overseas are accused of being drug couriers.

As long as demand for hard narcotics continues to grow, the Nigerian drug trade will flourish. Many legal, social, and economic solutions have been used by the Nigerian government to solve this issue; none have properly addressed its root causes. In the last few years, the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has had considerable success.

Military rule has spent much of the country' s resources on such things as political manipulation, security, public relations, and other such things while ignoring the country' s most pressing social challenges. Corruption has been fuelled by high unemployment and stagnant salaries.

In order for the current laws to be effective, the government must bring drug lords to prison, generate job opportunities, demonstrate its embrace of the rule of law, and foster political stability. A total of 45 citations were found.
