Let's declare war on drugs

Unfortunately, where we are at the right time now because drug use and abuse, the country is in a deep, deep, deep hole! Drug peddlers and drug lords have taken a grip on the nation's most precious gems – the youth – while decimating its greatest resource, to fulfil its potential.

They have found a niche in destroying futures and stealing the country's next best hope for a bit of considerable wealth in a few pockets at the expense of the masses who look to an uncertain fate. We should stand as a country and find ways to curb this evil that is devouring our children. Recently on Facebook, someone posted a distressing message from a father who lost his son to drugs.
