Swallowing cocaine is a way of tempting death, especially if the thing burst for your stomach

We hope the person that will take over from Marwa will follow his footsteps.

We urgently need to decriminalize cannabis.

The only reason we agree Cannabis is illegal is because Oyinbo told us so. After spending millions of $ on desensitization, the same Oyinbo is now making billions of $ in internally generated monies from cannabis legalization. The shackles of slavery and colonialism are still very much around our necks.

Meth, Cocaine, Crack, I can understand. Those are synthetic compounds made inside a lab. Cannabis is natural. Cannabis is wonderful. The still sell snuff powder but it is cannabis that is illegal. If we're not still modern slaves, we should have legalized before Holland sef

So you don't even know how they take it. They don't swallow it instead they insert it in their anus.

Now you have learnt.

The idiots know the risks of getting caught, and the dangers to their health if the stuff leaches into their systems.

Yet, they continue to venture into this nonsense.

All they think of is the financial gain at the point of success.

Anus is worse. More blood vessels, wahala dey.

True that. But cannabis farms must be regulated so as to get the benefits in terms of medical treatments. One patented cannabis-based drug is being used to manage the tremor symptoms of Parkinson's.

No not worse. They encase it before the insertion.

You can literally insert a 25cl bottle of coke in human anus, but it will take a lot of practice to achieve that.

Those drug pushers who insert in anus have gone through rigorous practice before they become certified.

Don't the Brazilians have body scanners at their airports? How come these boys keep ingesting drugs in Brazil but end up getting caught on arrival in Nigeria? Maybe Brazil has an agreement to tip off other countries' drug agencies about hard drugs couriers so that these criminals can be arrested on arrival at the destination airport.

The Udechukwu Ekene Theophilus drug courier guy who was arrested at Murtala Muhammed International Airport had even successfully flown from Brazil to Addis Ababa where he excreted some of the cocaine, before boarding a connecting flight to MMIA on Lagos State.
