Blue3k: Worldwide, the law is much harsher on the supplier than the consumer because it recognises the pusher as the corrupter of the addict. Your blodas have been taking advantage of the vulnerability of northern youths and therefore contributing to their addiction for profit - the authorities in Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, India and China cannot all be wrong; your ppl are a menace when it comes to the issue of drugs - deal with it. 1 Like |

asha80:If you are addicted to sex,and ur girl fails to turn up while u r on heat,can u go to bed like that? won't u masturbate to free yourself? Those guys have been introduced to drugs and are addicted, therefore they will try anything to give them highness. The point is,who is introducing them to this life?-it is the supplier! no body was born a drug addict-he or she was introduced to it at some point. so the major culprit is the supplier,without whom none will be victim. Please,we should leave the northerners to solve their own issues. I don't know what business is with the Igbo man who is not in the north,unless u are part of the drug network. |

ItsMeAboki: IT IS NOT DRUG BUT MEDICATION. IT IS NOT A PRESCRIPTIVE MEDICATION BUT A NON PRESCRIPTIVE MEDICATION. IT IS NOT A MEDICINE THAT IS REGULATED BUT A NON REGULATED MEDICINE THAT PEOPLE SHOULD BE TRUSTED TO BUY AND TAKE RESPONSIBLY. IN UK AND US, U CAN BUY THEM IN SUPERMARKET,(THAT IS PICK IT UP AS U DO YOUR GENERAL SHOPPING), NO SURPERVISION REQUIRED. IT IS LEGAL AND NOT ILLEGAL.

Cough syrup is a euphemism Is it expectorant or antitussive?? The drug has a name Does it contain codeine or not. Codeine is an opiate e,g if you give socalled cough syrup with codeine to a 1 year old the child might not wake up in the morning Doctors rarely use the term cough syrup because it is vague and meaningless Codeine is probably better taken separately if it must be taken |

TheKingIsHere: COUGH SYRUP is not a drug every drug by law is found in the relevant National Formulary there is a list of EVERY agent and its legal status i.e OTC or prescription only etc There is nothing like "COUGH SYRUP" technically That is a lay term The issue here is whether a so called cough syrup contains codeine or not. To understand this you need to undersstand the difference between antitussive and expectorant. Codeine isan opiate drug and can be supplied in tablets separately if required if should be given separately. In fact many countries no longer permit codeine in cough syrups. Calling it cough syrup is just ignorance but funnily you are sayng I am not informed on a subject which I can school you |

asha80:whatever! whether the medication is legal or not,we all will agree that people now abuse it,leading to grave consequence. And therefore stakeholders are looking for means to address it. The above Prof has only hinted that the suppliers of those drugs-whether their intentions were good or not-are most the Igbo's. It is their problem,and they have identified the source,so please we should leave them to sort their people's issues. |

hammer6F: Codeine based cough syrup have been banned and no longer off the counter prescription - this is Nigeria not UK or Amelica pls. Besides; the accusation covers all other illicit drugs in which the Igbos were implicated in the research. |

oyetunder: You have a good point. Initially, I was going to say: "nobody forced them to become junkies...", but on a deeper level, one needs to listen to the subliminal message being sent, which is: "Igbo are responsible for all your problems, from poverty to drugs abuse". In these months running up to elections, dog whistles like these need to be carefully monitored and countered. |

asha80:whether other means of highness have been there before codeine,cocaine and co, what is before us is that stakeholder believe the abuse of codeine and co,is bad. And the prof. has only shown the source or suppliers of those hard drugs. U and I can not dispute that from the recent arrests made so far. drug abuse is one human issue evert sane human must condemn without sentiments of any kinds. |

asha80:u are right on that that the fundamentals be sorted. however, the issue on discourse here is the observation that some Igbo's are in the habit of selling drugs to the northern youths,which is wrong. Even though the elites are solely to blame for the ignorance of the youths,it is not enough or justifies anyone to take advantage of them. I know how many friends and cousins I have lost to hard drugs. the last one was crazy until he drank one of those rat poisons and died. some are still roaming man. the advent of this madness started when oil companies came to our community and we had influx of different people,most with evil mindset who found the booming economy in the land to make money by selling drugs. |

the reason drug usage is rampant in the north is not far fetched, northern youths are undereducated while their southern counterparts are well educated and so can choose from good and bad. the solution should be providing good education to the youths not accusing economy drivers ...the Igbo's a major blessing we have in these country.

Yeah yeah stop crying yo me about your junkie kids. I know they lack self discipline. You people want to cry victim when you went looking for the dealer. The supplier more harmful because they can be dangerous and they're making untaxed income. Anyway one simple thing you guys should do after your done whinning is improve regulations. The medicine should be sold over counter. They should only give it out with prescription. The junkies inhabiting yiur street get them rehab. That way everyone has harder time getting codeine crazythe illegal drugs that's annother story. ItsMeAboki: |
