Roger3D: Unfortunately, there's nobody to arrest you for this hate speech. Tramadol and codeine are useful and important prescription pain medications which have been abused by wealthy , but addicted Hausa people who also creat demand for these drugs. If there's no demand there will be no supply. Before you incite drug infested poor Hausa population on the Igbos again just know that this is not 1966. 32 Likes 4 Shares |

Real nonsense! The “Chukwuma” is only meeting a demand! There is a demand and trust the enterprising Igbo man to capitalize on it. Note that he didn’t create the demand, he is only satisfying their wants. Please shift your blame and place it on the youth who have made poor choices. Perhaps if they weren’t so hypocritical then they’d just satisfy their need for getting high by drinking alcohol but no that’s haram so anything else will do be it glue, codeine, thinner and even putting their heads in sewers. Just drink alcohol and rest 21 Likes 2 Shares |

The article makes a big error due to the the tribalism of the writer. The writer is a tribalist so his perspective is clouded. Every sane economist who has analyzed the economics of illicit substances understands that demand reduction is the only thing that can stop drug trafficking. But the idiot writer in an attempt to be a tribalist does not understand that. Many countries have tried to curtail supply by going after drug dealers and stopping them. The result has always been an increase in prices and an even worse desire to supply more drugs. The solution is simple: reduce demand. Get the Northern youths to NOT take drugs anymore and the supply would reduce. How can this silly writer not see that? Why are they not sending hover boards, computers or cement down the North? Simply put, because there is no demand for it. Demand usually precedes supply. So the onus lies on the northern leaders to solve that problem. But the foolish writer here is more interested in ethnic Wars. 40 Likes 2 Shares |

Roger3D: So you really think a death penalty would solve the problem? Here is what happens when there is death penalties for economic crimes like drug trafficking. Supply is reduced but since the people still want drugs, PRICES increase. Since the drug addicts don't have enough money to cope with the new increases in price, they commit crimes to get the money. Since the drug business has now become more profitable, the supply increases. At the end, nothing changes. How is the death penalty working for the Asian countries? Every year, the number of drug addicts in Thailand, Indonesia and Singapore continues to increase despite the death penalty. The key is to reduce demand. Counsel people not to take drugs. Make it difficult for people to take drugs. If you kill demand, supply would cease. 15 Likes |

This epidemic started when our elites started sending their kids to school in Malaysia. Many of them were exposed to hard drugs and experimented with Medicinal drugs. Going forward, our Clergy should broaden the Haram on Alcohol to cover all Intoxicant! A typical northern youth would not take Alcohol because he was raised to shun it, but he has no issue taking Marijuana, codeine, tramadol or glue because there is no fatwa against these. we should own up to our problem rather than blame it on supply. 18 Likes 2 Shares |

This man is foolish. Why didn't he come out to tell his brothers to protect themselves from bokoharam or Fulani herdsmen killing innocent people in the north? Even if they stop selling LEGALIZED drugs, what about petrol or gum that the abokis inhale daily? Will they protest that one too? Abokis are drug addicts, take it or leave it. 20 Likes 2 Shares

This article though well meaning is based on ignorance. Drug suppliers are simply crooked businessmen only interested in the bottomline. Its nothing personal. I suspect what primarily fuels drug addiction in the core north is illiteracy. Ignorance of the potential danger of taking opiods such as Tramadol is not easily comprehended by poorly educated types. 10 Likes |

bala mohammed. please tackle the problem from the root. your religion needs to be looked into and modify. A man with little or no income less than 25k per month can not take care of four wives with 20 children. Hunger, idleness and no formal good education will drive them to drugs, almajiri, and Boko haram terrorists. I did my youth service at Malumfashi katsina state, most xtain parents have fewer well trained children that will never abuse drugs than the muslims families. 11 Likes |

This supposed educated yet ignorant Fulani man left the root cause of the problem, which lies squarely on the shoulders of having over ten million youths who are illiterate, idle and without any form of skill even if it's the most basic form!! This re.tar.ted, frustrated and hopeless youths of the North has taken to such anti social behaviours as an escape from their worthless lives yet this bast.ard was busy blaming Igbos for their misery.
