"Kush Epidemic: Synthetic Drug Devastates Sierra Leone"
In Sierra Leone, the synthetic drug kush, a potent and unpredictable form of synthetic cannabinoid, has become widespread, particularly among unemployed youth seeking an escape from poverty. The drug, often cut with harmful additives, is easily accessible and cheap, leading to devastating consequences such as addiction, health issues, and social disintegration. The country's limited resources and infrastructure for drug enforcement and rehabilitation are struggling to address the crisis, with concerns that the epidemic may spread to neighboring countries.
