A municipal leader in Ghana is worried about rising drug use among young people. The Atebubu Amantin MCE, Honorable Masud Musah Ayarba Thomas, addressed the issue at a local assembly meeting. He stated that youth are abusing substances like tramadol, weed, and even sniffing glue.
He connected this problem to an increase in other social crimes. He assured the council that the Municipal Security Council plans to tackle it directly. The official also noted that highway patrols by military and police units have reduced armed robberies on major roads in the area. He admitted these security operations are expensive for the municipality but said they will continue providing support to keep the peace.
