Actor Yomi Fash-Lanso of Nollywood has sent a clear message to young people who follow wealthy friends into drug abuse without considering the repercussions.
According to the actor, a lot of young people from low-income families are now abusing drugs because they want to fit in with the wealthy, but they don’t realize that the two scenarios can never be the same.
In his words:
“So you that’s a poor man Pikin that you know your parents don’t have money at all , you went and started taking wrap, L0ud and igb00 with rich man Son. When that rich man son becomes insan£, his parents will quickly take him abroad for treatment or rehabilitation.But you that’s a poor man pikin, nah hear they will tie you down and they will use cane and st1ckk to fl0g out the madn£ss from your body. Abeg don’t stop oo, that ur brain that’s not working properly would soon start working very well”.
Drug abuse is a destructive path that can ruin your future, damage your health, and destroy your relationships. It may seem like a way to escape problems temporarily, but in the end, it only leads to pain, addiction, and regret. Youths are the future of our society, and it is essential that they make wise choices to build a better life. Stay away from drugs, seek support when needed, and focus on positive activities that help you grow and succeed. Remember, your life is precious—protect it by making healthy and responsible decisions.
