Nigerians your colonial masters have legalized marijuana in their countries and they make billions every year .... But you slaves are still foolishly following your masters commands....

Their colonial masters also told them that cigarette is legal even though cigarette has killed millions yesterday today and definitely tomorrow.

kokaneprodigy:

Cigarette doesn’t get you high, neither does it impact your judgement.

But alcohol does get you high and impacts your judgment, and it goes further to kill your organs in the long run. YET alcohol is legal because those that brew and sell it in commercial quantities told you so. Lol Africans!

drololaaof:

Not only ignorance of the law but the effect of it on our youths and psychosocial effect.

The youths are dying more of kidney failure, lung related diseases and diabetes…and it’s not through weed.

The government of the world is evil, the earlier we understand this the better our our life will be.

Nothing created by God should be prohibited rather should be moderated in use

Grandmeister:

The demonising of cannabis is one of the greatest irony and hypocrisy of the world. Imagine demonising a plant that grows naturally and allowing cigarette to be legal. They demonised cannabis because they couldn’t have market control and taxation over it since it’s a plant that grows naturally. But now some of the world societies are beginning to recant from such folly.

NAFDAC will approve hair cream that has cannabis in it. I don't anything wrong with what that woman is doing if its for the right purpose.

Grandmeister:

Not just the person taking it but even affects people around you, we’ve seen people get violent after taking alcohol, people have killed others cause they drank and drove. We see this happen around us. Yet alcohol is legal and cigarette is the problem. We have people kill others under the influence of Mary Jay but cigarette is the world problem.

Ask them how many people they have seen die as a result of cigarette, they will start combing the web for stats that can’t be verified.

They say cigarette causes cancer, More people have died of kidney and liver failure than cancer. Not to mention that not all cancers are even lung related.

They will pad stats of old people of over 70 years of age that died of lung related cancer and tag it it’s cigarette just cause they smoked when they were young. And I ask what’s the average life expectancy of a human being anyways?.

This is what I’m trying to tell the jakumo guy.
Dude doesn’t really understand the business politics behind cigarette brouhaha.

Grandmeister:

You can’t prove this

Jakumo:


Ha ha I like the "Trouble dey sleep, yanga go wake am" strategy that you deployed when the illiterate policewoman at the station desk allowed you to write your own account of the accident that was caused by a stray pedestrian who refused to use the overhead bridge.

Hopefully, the cannabis-growing woman's lawyers will be able to capitalize on her defense citing medical grounds informing her cannabis usage, as a platform to point out the absurdity of Nigeria's cannabis prohibition laws. The sooner medical marijuana is legalized in Nigeria the sooner a pervasive criminal network comprising illegal growers that poison the cannabis with dangerous chemicals as well as corrupt police officers who rob and extort personal growers of 100% organically cultivated medical cannabis, can be dismantled and consigned to the dustbin of history.

Jakumo:


You have highlighted the paradox of cannabis prohibition.

We all see the good and bad we want to see. You have very well highlighted the the negatives of alcohol and cigarette which I totally agree with.

However, you failed to see the negatives of cannabis and it's negative multiplier effects too. If it is a pharmaceutical company growing or its grown in a controlled environment, they may not be an issue to it because it will then be used for the positives you highlighted. That said, there are lots of negatives drugs (cannabis included) that made the government to prohibit it's uncontrolled use.

The number of mentally unstable people in Nigeria are increasing on daily basis because of uncontrolled use of cannabis and other drugs. That you failed to see / highlight. As they become mentally unstable, they become useless to themselves, families and the society at large. Creating a bigger social problem for the government to deal.

Most times money and time spent by parent and relatives to train them are wasted, then there is also money spent in trying to rehabilitate them that may never yield result because of addiction.

It creates addicts that does not only want rely on it to leave but would also make them to want to disposses others of their money and properties to fund their addiction. In most cases refusal to hand them the money or property to fund their addiction may either lead to theft or violence. Which brings me to the final point.

Cannabis and other controlled drugs aid criminals to commit crimes and other violent acts. Majority of the violent crimes we see being committed these days from armed robbery to kidnapping and even terrorism are aided by drugs. Without the aid of drugs (cannabis included) the pepertrator of these crimes can only plan at best but for their actions to come to fruition, they must be assisted by drugs to toughen them up and remove their innate conscience/human feelings to be able to act reclessly.

The whole gamut of insecurity and social issues are connected to the use of drugs. That's where the government is looking at.

You don't love Me, why are you into My Business.. You will still die anyway... Stay away from Cannabis, Honey, Agriculture, Medical, business if you don't like or love Me sincerely. It not a joke!!!!

The real danger posed by cannabis is when its production and sale remain by default in the hands of criminals who poison the harvest with addictive and deadly chemicals, then call it funny names like Arizona or Colorado, all of which do cause madness and thus further demonize the pure form of cannabis that has been naturally grown and is proven to be medically safe for consumption by most people with few exceptions.

Your reference to the psychoactive nature of cannabis is also valid in that not everyone should be allowed to use cannabis even if it is legal because some people are prone to mental instability, which could be exacerbated by ANY psychoactive agent ingested, including alcohol. That said, organically cultivated cannabis that has not been adulterated with nasty chemicals is perfectly safe to consume for the vast majority of people who may choose to use it for either medical or recreational purposes.

Waste of good natural medicine. while alcohol is killing naigerians everyday.

It's a back yard farming, and it's for her personal medicinal use nah.

she go bail her self ...i like are boobs

Tegabadguy:

Hopefully, her proudly displayed assets will help her case. I know if you were heading the investigative team the woman would be freed immediately because you like and appreciate her ample bosoms which can then become part of her desperate negotiation to secure the gift of freedom. No be all ting when eye see wey mouth go fiti dey talk am.

All told it would also be advisable for our lady cannabis gardener to seek out and enlist a competent criminal defense lawyer who can articulate her case before the court and perhaps in the process help expedite the greater good of decriminalizing medical marijuana such that government-approved and taxed industrial facilities can commence pumping millions of investment dollars into the Nigerian economy.

Donmonday1994:
Last last if she fit get this mouth and good lawyer her jail term no long

14yrs.

Legalize this shìt and let's focus law enforcement resources on heinous crimes

Don't know why Nigeria is always moving in slow motion with respect to the rest of the world

Rozross:
Slawomir And ZoneFree will be sad about this

I'm sad on this, cause the weed is mine. They can't try that in my parish.
Punk motherfuckers.

Nigeria always looking at the bad side of everything... In years to come they go do follow follow approve am.

The therapeutic benefits of marijuana is too much. The cosmetic and healing benefits is also much.

There was a time I searched for the seed to plant. I go still plant am if I see am.
So long as you don't sell it or mass produce it... I am cool with it.
Is part of the herbs and vegetables God provided for us to eat.

She must have grown it to ward off snakes & mosquitoes....make them legalise this thing na I have 7hectares of arable land I dnt know what to plant....how much is a 50kg bag of weed sef?

Honestly speaking I guessed right the tribe of the suspect. No wonder they insisted Pastor Kumuyi is not permitted to come to their region. They will still come here now to defend their sister of doing normal business

If the Nigerian government is not ready to legalize cannabis, let them at least make it legal to plant massive cannabis trees at home as a means of scaring away mosquitoes, snakes, and other dangerous reptiles like landlords looking to collect overdue rent.

Under such a legalization arrangement, all growers of weed will be required to sign a written undertaking promising that they will never attempt to smoke it, and will only use it to drive away insects and tax collectors.
