West Africa - and particularly its most populous nation, Nigeria - is battling an opioid abuse crisis. Medicines such as tramadol, legally and legitimately prescribed by doctors for pain relief, are also being taken in life-threatening doses by millions in search of a fix or a release from poverty, unemployment and lack of opportunity.

People & Power sent filmmakers Naashon Zalk and Antony Loewenstein to Nigeria to investigate how the drug is smuggled, traded and abused, as well as the widespread corruption that follows this illicit trafficking, and the appalling health consequences for those in its grip.
All in all anybody who can afford to buy this drugs have money. I don't understand how someone who hasn't eaten and claim not to have money will buy and start taking drugs worth thousands.

Nigerians have no opioid crisis.. its you Western people that love the xoke and heroin so much so people nake money by supplying your addicted asses..

White pple very hypocritical.. locked and harrassed black pple for weed for years.. then legalise and now many white companies cashing out on legal weed

Any Nigerian that tries anything more than weed na OYO be him case
Too much oil dey your head. Oyibo love to manufacture problem where there is none. Nigerians are too broke to maintain expensive drug habits. Naija weed is too good to be exported overseas… but our colo mentality and legal system have criminalized it, but same Oyibos are legalizing it and selling weed stock on stock market exchanges in EU/N/America.. same people we borrowed their legal system.

Where I work in Abuja I noticed the most addicted to weed and cigarettes are labourers.
So many smokers among labourers in construction communities.
They hardly eat but they must share a smoke.

There are different grades of tramadol.

Also that is how addiction fks people up. Most addicts start out from stable lifestyles and then every falls apart as they borrow, steal,beg and rob to feed their addiction.

Which yeye addiction. The West like to project their problems and fears on Africans. The greater problem is that many Nigerians cannot afford three square meals. Na person wey don chop belle full go dey do hard drugs. Nigerians also just dont have a culture of taking drugs. Even to smoke ordinary cigar pple in Nigeria go dey shame dey hide do am. Make Dem explain how they got the 5 million addicts in Nigeria. Na lie. Na owambe and shayo and at most igbo Nigerian man go spend his money on. The igbo that was illegal and used to put many black men in prison in America is now been profited on by investors. It's just not right.
