\nAfricaPress-Tanzania:<\/strong> PRESIDENT John Magufuli on Monday confirmed and swore in as full Commissioner General of the Drug Control and Enforcement Authority (DCEA), Mr James Kaji.<\/p>\n

Mr Kaji, who prior to his promotion was the Acting Commissioner General of DCEA, has been confirmed due to his outstanding performance in the office.<\/p>\n

His promotion came unexpectedly as Dr Magufuli\u00a0made a sudden decision when addressing the nation shortly after swearing event of Regional Commissioners for Tabora and Kigoma, Regional Administrative Secretary (RAS) for Simiyu region as well as District Commissioners and District Executive Directors (DEDs), who were appointed recently.<\/p>\n

Before announcing his decision, Dr Magufuli hailed Mr Kaji for his latest operations that have seen a number of bags of marijuana being seized and destroyed in Arumeru District, Arusha Region.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been watching him doing a good job, just yesterday I saw him in one of the districts busy destroying the bags of marijuana. This is the working spirit I want, so from today, (yesterday) I\u2019m confirming you to the full position,\u201d said Dr Magufuli during the event that was live broadcast from Chamwino State House, in Dodoma.<\/p>\n

However, Dr Magufuli smelled underperformance among heads of security forces in Arumeru district that led to their failure to curb the illicit trade in the district, forcing the DCEA chief to intervene.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
