Hon. Larkoh Kush said the narcotic has caused serious setback to the future; he therefore warned youths not to partake in drug abuse but rather to desist from it.

The MP further said that Sierra Leone is currently crying as thousands of youth are languishing in the streets due to Kush consumption.

“Let’s work as one people to fight these drugs that are killing our youthful population,” he called on Sierra Leoneans.
