Codeine Abuse Is The Handiwork Of A Hopeless Economy – Shehu Sani by olajay86(m): 11:35am On May 03, 2018
http://www.titopeblog.com/2018/05/codeine-abuse-is-handiwork-of-hopeless.html

Shehu Sani, the Senator representing Kaduna Central has said that the state of hopelessness in the economy is responsible for the abuse of codeine by Nigerians.

The lawmaker said this in reaction to an investigatory video by BBC recorded in Nigeria showing abuse of codeine by youths and its consequences.

Titope Blog reports that the Minister of Health, Prof. Isaac Adewole, on Tuesday directed the National Agency for Food, Drug Administration and Control, NAFDAC, to ban with immediate effect further issuance of permits for the importation of codeine as active pharmaceutical ingredient for cough preparations.

Adewole said the directive became necessary due to the gross abuse of Codeine usage in the country.

However, reacting through his Twitter handle, Shehu Sani said creation of a stabilised economy and system to give hope to the youths will hinder them from finding solace in Codeine.

He urged the federal government to promote the economy, hence, give meaning to their lives.

Sani wrote, “Codeine is an opium that symbolizes our social dislocation and societal collapse.What we have is a system that has over the years ostracized and mentally deformed a generation, dispatching them to seek solace in aphrodisiac .

“Codeine is a problem and the bigger problem remains a corrosive socio economic order that created a state of hopelessness.We must continue to work hard in order to change it so as to give meaning to the lives of our young ones.”

Senator Shehu Sani is very right, an idle mind is the devil workshop. The generation of leaders (Buhari, OBJ, IBB etc) that created this rots need to be butted out.

embarassed What about those consuming hard drugs even in those countries with robust economies? It is not by force to speak on issues beyond your wisdom Mr Shehu...doing so reveals your folly to your foes. Let the economy improve today, and you shall see more Nigerians having enough money to spare on romancing drugs. Shut up and sit down. Mentally Lazy Nigerian Senator.

This one codeine dey trend like dis, dey don ban am... Hope say dem no go ban tramadol
Re: Codeine Abuse Is The Handiwork Of A Hopeless Economy – Shehu Sani by horsepower101: 12:17pm On May 03, 2018
Codiene abuse is the direct result of sharia law.

When you ban alcoholic beverages, the youths find alternative ways to deal with their stress. They find unconventional means.

Why is codiene not a major problem in the south as compared to the north.

Also, look at Somalia and their strict sharia law. The citizens abuse khat. Same with Yemen and oman. Even Saudi Arabia has the same problem.

This codeine thing has been going on for years!

People have complained more recently on various media but trust your government to ignore eerything until BBC does a documentary that embarrases the President who is in the abroad!


Ban Tramadol? your guess is as good as mine...

Codeine isn't free and consumption didn't start 3 years ago, not everything is politics.

You also have rich people who are addicted to codeine and some on cocaine

Nope. Ibos are the number one drug peddlers not only in Nigeria but internationally as well. The recent ban on codeine importation is a waste of time if it isn't attached to the death penalty, cos nothing will stop an ibo man from going to Afghanistan just to smuggle the drug back here

Hmm.. abokis who attack BEER TRUCKS patronise anything that can INTOXICATE them to hell. Who is deceiving who now? They see you as a big sinner when you are seen with ALCOHOL yet they take solace in anything that can HIGH them even early morning pit latrine, all types of GLUE.
