No To Pills and Drug Abuse

Substance abuse has become a significant problem in the African continent in recent years. Reports of increasing abuse have appeared in many countries. In Nigeria, beginning from the early 1980s, the abuse of cocaine and heroin has been added to the problem. Even though epidemiological findings show low rates of abuse of these illicit substances in the general population, hospital-based studies point to a growing incidence of cocaine and heroin-related mental health problems.

No, To Substance Abuse is targeted at reducing the abuse of drugs and mortality related to drug use in Nigeria.
