Nigeria - Crime
Muhammad a local vendor packaged wrapped cannabis which is popularly known as marijuana for sales in Ibafo area of Ogun State on November 29,2019. A United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) data released in 2017, suggests that 14.3% of Nigerians (27 million people) smoke cannabis. Over the last two years, there has been a spotlight on cannabis consumption in Nigeria with a focus on these two areas - the possibility of decriminalization and the place of marijuana within the big picture of drug abuse in the country. Scientists in the United States (US) said frequent smokers of marijuana, which is also known as cannabis were more than twice as likely to suffer a stroke compared with those who don't partake.
