Ganja Nation Ghana Becomes Number One Indian Hemp Smoking Country by ameheo(m): 1:30pm On Sep 29, 2014
Nigeria's neighbour, Ghana, has been confirmed
as the country with the highest number of Indian
Hemp smokers in the world.
Nigeria's neighbour, Ghana, has made a most
notorious history as it has beaten the likes of
Jamaica and USA to become the country with
the most Indian Hemp smokers in the world.
According to a survey conducted by World Drug
Report, the West African nation was named as
the world ' Igbo » ' smoking leaders with 2.8
million Ghanaians out of about the 25,000,000
million population being active weed smokers
and likely to get high on a daily basis, a
whopping 11.2% of the populace.
In the report carried by Ghanaian top website,
OMG Ghana, » other countries that came under
the same study included Jamaica, USA, Nigeria
and the Netherlands but none of these countries
came close to the former Gold Coast in terms of
daily weed takers.
The report has it that while usage in the U.S.
rose after some marijuana legalization began in
2012, it’s still under 10%. Ghana still comes out
on top even though marijuana consumption is
illegal in the country.
OMG Ghana took a look at the national culture
that has made Ghanaians the world’s top weed
smokers:
The weed scene in Ghana
Similar to most African countries,
marijuana is actually illegal in Ghana, but
seems to be openly acceptable by the
new generation. Smoking weed in high schools
and the university is considered ‘cool’.
The area boys who are known to smoke
ganja are typically regarded as the ‘cool
kids on the block’, and are generally
respected by the community they reside.
Weed in Ghana is very cheap
Indian hemp is verycheap in Ghana as
compared to other nations, and this
makes even those with virtually no
source of livelihood to get easy access to the
drug. There are generally three grades available:
“Marri” is low-quality, “polli” is medium-grade
and “riger” is the top-shelf stuff, and they cost
varying amount of money.
Where Ghanaians get their weed
The ‘BUSH’ in the local communities are
notoriously known as the ‘ganja’ spots.
Most of the smoking is done outside in
the bush. It’s very, very warm in Ghana, and
thankfully, there are many small hut-and-bench
combos, which allow for cool breezes to flow
over you while hiding from the ever-present
glaring sun.
The Narcotics Control Board boss is
open to legalization
The Executive Secretary of the Narcotics
Control Board, (NACOB), Yaw Sarpong,
can see some wisdom in the legalisation
of cannabis sativa because increasingly, ordinary
people do not think that possessing the
mentally-disturbing substance is a crime.
Why Ghanaians love weed more than
other people
It’s very unclear why, maybe the
Rastafarians have finally found a way to
positively influence the public or
Ghanaians simply know how to fun better than
everyone else.
