The Parliament of Sierra Leone has issued a statement summoning key government officials to address the growing concern over the dangerous drug known as “Kush” and its detrimental impact on the youth population of the country.
The invited officials include the Ministry of Health, the Ministry of Social Welfare, the head of the Sierra Leone Police, and The National Drugs Law Enforcement Agency. They are expected to provide updates to lawmakers on the alarming spread and consequences of Kush consumption among Sierra Leone’s youth.
Parliament further stated that based on the results of the updates will trigger the house to take appropriate measures to combat the situation in the country.
The proclamation was initiated by the Deputy Majority Leader and Leader of Government Business, Hon. Bashiru Silikie, and supported by Hon. Mohamed Trawallie Fofanah from Kambia District.
The statement further stated that Honourable Members for both sides of their parties deliberate on the negative effects of the ‘Kush’ drug on society and the number of young men and women that are dying from drug addiction. Honourable members are calling on stronger measures to be instituted against the drug lords including the importers and sellers of the harmful substances.
The statement highlighted how both Leaders of the house promised to work in consonance to address the national menace and also recommended to the government for stronger penalties to be instituted for lawbreakers.
