Liberia’s drug problem: Drug abuse is on the rise with few treatment facilities
Liberia’s new president Joseph Boakai has declared drug abuse a “public health emergency.”
Addiction to heroin and crack cocaine is on the rise.
And a lack of treatment facilities means the majority of addicts are left to fend for themselves.
Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reports from the capital, Monrovia.

Has anybody else noticed the fact that Youtube has been deleting comments on the news videos? I made a youtube video about it and everything!

No it wont.
In Liberia people always stand to the left of the binaural microphone. It's truly an epidemic.
Well what I am looking at is a defeated tribe and I cannot blame you we white people we made it VERY hard for you African people to have a dignified live and for that I am deeply deeply deeply sorry !!! But drugs is not the problem take a look at my country The Netherlands, have you ANY idea how much XTC and powder and Speed and whatever is produced here ? Since 1900 ? Or what do you think ? Tholse soldiers during world war 1 and 2 were running like cheetahs without any help ? No no no no !!! The soldiers during world war 1 were SUPER high on Cocaine that we Dutch produced complety putting Peru and Columbia out of business yeahhhhhhh !!!!! Or why do you think a lot of those soldiers are photographed with smiles on their face ? DURING WORLD WAR ! ? Well there ya go, now you know ! Cocaine ! And then second world war …. then the Germans were SUPER high or what do you think ? That the Germans were fighting like beasts WITHOUT any help ? Of course not…. so you see these soldiers were HIGHLY motivated despite the fact that death was waiting for them…. now with that said, look at our country, you find coffee shops alllllll over where you can buy as much weed as you want well take a look at our position in the world ? Take a look at our fight against the North sea that is now lasting for 10s of thousands even 100s of THOUSANDS of years !!!! Did it DE motivate us ? NO !!! Did it throw us back to say : aaaaaaa whatever let's go cry in a corner like a baby ? NOOOOOOOO look at our position ! 10 largest exporter of goods in the world…. we grow and SELL 90 percent of ALL the tulips in the world with 50 percent of ALL cut flower production HELLLOOOO !!!! Biggest cheese export….. biggest POTATO export !!!!!!! We also own the ONLY company capable of producing the machines that are needed to make the smallest chips so we can RUN THE WORLD !!!! SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO With all that dope…….. you think it destroyed us ? Noooooo it made us stronger, faster….. smarter………take a look !!!! So it is not drugs that is the problem what is the problem is your situation … get up and stand up and fight !!!! And then you can use allll the drugs you like but do not abuse it…. use it from time to time…..that is fine nothing wrong with that ! But dont sit there as a bunch of defeated young men ….. in a circle crying over things I know I know I know we whites put you in that spot I know…. but there is also a time for you to say listen ! I can use some dope in my life, with all that hardship, and then nothing you move on, you wake up you make your coffee and you build your country like you see fit….. but don't sit there like a bunch of girls crying over that you cannot use drugs ! That is all up to YOU ! not a government or ANYONE….. no one can tell you what you can or can not use…. but YOU are the adult right ? YOU need to know what you can handle OR NOT !!!! Carry on !
Big Prayers to my Dear Liberian Brothers and Sisters! Much Love. 💗
Liberians just like yo exaggerate things…I have been around west Africa and Liberia isn't close to Guinea, Sierra Leone and Ivory Coast intense of drug abuse. The opposition used the drug tactics to win the election.
What the jewish people need to do that someone would like us or identify with us?! Only when we are under attack like 7 October massacre ?! If it would be second holocaust you will appreciate us?! According to Taliban and Isis after 9 eleven USA killed more than half million people in her war in Afghanistan and Iraq , believe me any another country that would be under attack like in October 7 would do much painful wars than Israel against this terrorists! Only the jewish people can’t defend themselves from Hamas, Hezzbolah , Islamic Jihad , Isis , Houtis and more…? We will never allow to terrorists win us again , we aren’t in the time of the holocaust
