 Federal lawmakers in the lower chamber are calling on the federal government to declare a state of emergency on drug abuse in the country. This followed a motion of urgent national importance by Honourable Henry Muawba from the plenary which called for urgent action to be taken to arrest the ugly development among youths and adults as well. These addictive drugs come by different names, Tramadol, Codeine Syrup, Lakka Tom Tom and so on. In the end they pointed out that according to many it is a drug abuse fastest drawing the future of the country. Honourable Henry Muawba brought the motion under matter of urgent national importance to the floor of the plenary, warning against the dire consequences if government failed to act in full force. Concerned that as a stimulant it has a powerful euphoric effect similar to those of cocaine. Meth typically keeps users awake, depriving them of sleep, making them react violently and takes a toll on the physical look of its users. The House resolves to mandate the Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency to reintegrate and strategize further on its enforcement and enlightenment capacity to cover the mood and cure for this meth addiction which has no medical treatment at the moment. Anything that has the capacity to alter the human constitution, to alter how a man is constituted, Mr. Speaker, is dangerous. Crystal meth is not only addictive, it makes you hallucinate, it puts you under influence which could be subjected to any use, including the beheading of people as he said. And what we should be talking about is who are the manufacturers. Mr. Speaker, honourable members, this is called Unkurumiri in the south east, it's actually met. It does sound like a joke, but it's not a joke, it's actually very serious. It's actually killing a lot of people and when I told them, in like five, ten years time, if we don't stop it, we're going to have a zombie society, Mr. Speaker, because at least in my constituency, you will find 11, 12-year-olds taking this meth. So really, what kind of future are we expecting these young ones to have? So we're definitely going to have drop top society, zombie society, that's not good for us. So we must really take this in very seriously. One of the major problems I want to draw the attention of this hallowed chamber too is the ease with which this meth is produced. Like tramadol and cocaine that have to be imported because they are not usually, you know, produced in Nigeria, methamphetamine, amphetamine can be produced from this common cold drugs that are over the counter, drugs for kata and for cough, and they can be, it can be met from crude laboratories in homes and in communities. So that's what makes it very easy to access and also quite cheap. And with this rate, if we are unable to really stem the tide of the abuse of this very dangerous drug, and permits our youth population, which are in their tens of millions, we will have a bigger disaster in our hands.
