Trailblazer opposition legislature Hon Tendai Biti has argued the government to come up with an anti-drug addiction policy to help thousands of young people who are wasting their lives on drugs. Speaking during a parliamentary session, Hon Biti said that the abuse of cough mixtures is spreading across the country, and what’s more worrying is that our youth are consuming hardcore drugs like crystal meth which has serious health consequences.
He went further and say that the government must come up with a robust policy to make sure that our borders are secure from drug smugglers and the “Bigfish” in the industry are arrested. He also bemoans the mistreatment of people who are suffering from drug addiction citing the lack of rehabilitation centers, parents chasing their kids into the streets, and the general shunning of people whose lives have been ruined by drugs.
