Sentiment always comes before reasoning. The stand of NDLEA is understood but how do deny humans access to God's creation simply because few weak minds abuse a substance, alcohol kills more than any drug in the world but it is legal simply because of the process involved in packaging is capital intensive and we are told to drink responsibly so not everyone can start up the business. A natural herb is outlawed because everyone has access to start the business. Let keep my seeds verywell, MJ will definitely come to stay. 1 Like |

Athemisia: Thank you very much for your education. But for how long will Oil revenue keep coming in? For how long will we keep destroying the environment because of Oil exploration? Think about the soot in PH Think about the destroyed farmlands in the south south... Cannabis has tremendous benefits, and this is a fact. 1 Like |

Cantonese:Social views are not "sentimental" they are legitimate. We cannot say because there are economic benefits we should legalize the sale of human meat and dismiss objectors as "sentimental" There is no unanimity among "experts" in the field I am really disappointed by the quality of the arguments on both sides of the debate I support the decriminalization of cannabis because its use is so widespread, it is virtually impossible to police and enforce the existing law and the relative harm of cannabis is "tolerable" Decriminalization is not the same as legalization The argument that economic benefits abound should apply not just to cannabis but to cocaine , heroin, Crystal meth and so on. The limitng issue is "RELATIVE HARM" How harmful is cannabis and what s the evidence for that and how does that compare to alcohol, tobacco cocaine etc The decision of how much relative harm is acceptable is a legitimate Social concern that should be part of the debate and not dismissed as sentiment. Sentiment is part of human live and a genuine and legitimate one. Human beings are not robots we are sentimental. |

aribisala0: Cannabis that has NOT been adulterated with any chemical intoxicant, herbicide, or pesticide, cannot be equated with deadly alcohol, cocaine, meth, PCP, heroin, or even prescription opiates that currently kill more young Americans than any other cause including cancer. No sir, in its pure form, cannabis is NOT a poison capable of causing overdose deaths, as is the case with alcohol. Furthermore, medical marijuana has been clinically proven to possess cancer prevention and mitigation properties, unlike cigarette and pipe tobacco, which though legal do rank among the most insidiously addictive, carcinogenic and polluting recreational drugs known to man. |

MarketDispatch: That's why the country is stucked in hell, no smart thinking leaders,all you guys see is the bad part forgetting about the revenue and other benefits that will come from it. Since the ban have they been able to stop it or even reduce the consumption ( no) when they talk about hemp,every body thinks it's about smoking,the oil is more expensive than your crude oil by far, it's use medicine also. You can be smarter than the western countries that lifted it's ban and racking in billions of dollars.you guys should start thinking in a smart manner. |

Jakumo:What is medical cannabis? Is there a standard definition? By the way There is medical heroin, morphine and amphetamine too . That can be obtained ONLY by prescription. Did you know that I think the concern is not about medical but recreational use and also will medical cannabis supply be subject to the same control as medical heroin? |

Re: Buba Marwa: Legalization Of Cannabis Will Take Nigeria To Dark Days by Jakumo(m): 9:16am On Nov 19, 2021 |
aribisala0: Overlap certainly exists between the medical and recreational applications of cannabis, and truth be told, these two considerations are inextricable, meaning that it will be impossible to legalize "medical" marijuana, without concurrently legalizing the recreational use of cannabis, and thereby removing the stigma associated with its consumption that still sadly prevails in much of Africa. |
Re: Buba Marwa: Legalization Of Cannabis Will Take Nigeria To Dark Days by aribisala0(m): 9:17am On Nov 19, 2021 |
if cannabis were to be legalized for recreational use it would still need regulation The chemistry of "getting high" is getting sophisticated all the time. New chemicals are being synthesized every day. So many come in the form of an aerosolized sprayed that can be sprayed on weed to enhance the "high" In short without regulation adulteration will happen as a way of competing/getting market share. So one likely benefit of legalization is that it comes under the NAFDAC umbrella For me in genuine debate one should be able to make both sides of the argument with genuine objectivity and not take positions that are irrevocable or non-negotiable. In short one should be willing and able to change one 's mind if new facts emerge |
Re: Buba Marwa: Legalization Of Cannabis Will Take Nigeria To Dark Days by Jakumo(m): 9:25am On Nov 19, 2021 |
aribisala0: I most enthusiastically agree that government regulation and NAFDAC testing of cannabis crops will be absolutely VITAL aspects of any newly approved and legalized marijuana production industry in Nigeria. Ideally, there must be NO sprays of ANY sort applied to harvested cannabis. Tragically, the illegality of cannabis in Nigeria means that deadly poisons are currently being added to marijuana by evil-minded dealers, who then re-name such poisoned weed as "Colorado", "Arizona", and "Loud". Youtube is full of posted videos showing Nigerians in the throes of horrible and frightening psychotic episodes caused by smoking those intentionally adulterated and poisoned batches of illegally farmed weed. Once the crop is made legal, tough regulations and government inspections of all licensed facilities will ensure that this insidious practice of applying poisons to cannabis in Nigeria, will be terminated by the rule of law. |

Re: Buba Marwa: Legalization Of Cannabis Will Take Nigeria To Dark Days by aribisala0(m): 9:28am On Nov 19, 2021 |
Jakumo:It depends there are extracts of cannabis that are available on prescription. They are not smoked and do not get you high so there can be separation Significantly a crucial problem with cannabis is that it is smoked which cause significant respiratory problems especially over many years . There is no way to sugar coat that. So this idea of a "medical" cannabis which is no different from rolling up and smoking cannot be genuinely marketed as "medical". I think there is extricability and separability. Indeed medical cannabis will be less likely to make you "high" or euphoric or be attractive for recreational use. Legalization could potentially lead to more research in extracting medicinal components and also devise means of administration/ingestion that are do not involve smoking |

Emmanuelcann: We are presently close to hearing news that Nigeria has ended the senseless prohibition on the growing, use, processing, sale and export of cannabis. Fat Bubba Marwa would not be shouting, showering spittle and leaping up and down without a good reason. The trigger for Fat Bubba Marwa's hysterical behavior is most likely that serious back-room discussions are being held at the topmost levels of Nigerian governance, about the feasibility of repealing ALL Nigeria's antiquated colonial cannabis prohibition laws, in order to usher in a new economic boom era of mega-prosperity at all levels of government and society, by FINALLY legalizing marijuana as a matter of paramount urgency. God bless His Excellency President Muhammadu Buhari, and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. |

aribisala0: Smoking anything including cannabis is not a healthy practice, so it is very fortunate that simple household kitchen processes can be used to extract the two primary active ingredients of cannabis, namely psychoactive THC and non-psychoactive CBD, into coconut oil, for use in preparing tasty dishes or cakes that deliver the same effect as the original plant matter that used to be smoked exclusively. |
