War on drug abuse everybody’s responsibility

Editor, This is an appeal to the general public to collectively wage war against drugs and eliminate the menace. Every evening, I have encountered a group of young people near Greenwich Hotel towards Remera smoking marijuana. However, what is beyond belief is that no bystander seems bothered.

Editor,

This is an appeal to the general public to collectively wage war against drugs and eliminate the menace. Every evening, I have encountered a group of young people near Greenwich Hotel towards Remera smoking marijuana. However, what is beyond belief is that no bystander seems bothered.

I think the best way to effectively fight against drugs is to combine efforts. This is also a challenge to our law enforcers to swing into action to apprehend the offenders in Remera.

We can neither have a moral society nor realise our national development goals when our youth engage in drugs. As a concerned citizen, it is my appeal that the government strengthens community policing to curb the vice.
