Ondo To Focus On Marijuana Market - Akeredolu by Sanromeo(m): 11:06am On May 14, 2019
Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, who is currently in Thailand with the Chairman of the National Drug Law Enforcement agency (NDLEA), Col. Muhammad Mustapha Abdallah rtd on visit for a Program on Medicinal Cannabis Extract Development, has said in a response to SaharaReporters on twitter, that his administration will focus on the legal Marijuana Market, which will in turn generate several billions of dollars and also provide thousands of jobs for the teeming youths.

In his tweets, "We all know that Ondo State is the hot bed of cannabis cultivation in Nigeria. We know how to grow it and it thrives well in the Sunshine State. With an estimated value of $145 Billion in 2025, we would be shortchanging ourselves if we failed t tap into the Legal Marijuana Market"

He stressed that "Our focus now is Medical Marijuana cultivation in controlled plantations under the full supervision of the @ndlea_nigeria. I strongly implore the FG to take this seriously as it is a thriving industry that will create 1000's of Jobs for our youth & spur Economic Diversification"

The Ondo State Government and the NDLEA are using the visit to access Thailand materials and best practises with the possibility of replicating them in Nigeria.

Ondo State is known as the largest in the planting of cannabis in Nigeria.

THEN THEY SHOULD START BY LEGALISING IT. YOU CANT BE RESEARCHING ABOUT SOMETHING CRIMINALISED IN YOUR COUNTRY AND THINK ITS A NOBLE EFFORT.

sad As a born again Christian who is meant to speak the truth at all times, i think this is wrong in all ramifications. Ondo has many natural resources that can be harnessed other than growing and selling weed. This are things you won't find up north and other Muslim nations yet Saudi Arabia is one of the richest countries on earth. I hope the Federal government kick against this abominable thought so as to preserve the dignity of we Christians sad

Sharap! You're not a Christian let alone a born again! That aside, what is even wrong with marijuana? Why ban marijuana that has so much health benefits but hypocritically turned around to embrace tobacco that contains nicotine which is dangerous to health?

Nigeria is a federal public and each state has constitutional rights to source for ways to sustain it

Your views are as limited as the bouquet offered by your moniker.

This is a welcome development. We can't keep criminalising Heavenly given vegetables because some people got low metabolic levels.

Good move by the governor. This could be a big money spinner for the state if they implement and monitor it properly. There is serious money in weed business.
