He wrote, “SAY NO TO DRUGS!!! Leave Indian hemp A.K.A ‘IGBO’, leave codeine, leave tramadol, leave loud, leave Cociane, leave SK, leave all these self-damaging drugs.
“I am saying this to help the persons who know themselves. This is not the time for trolling but a time to look inward and ask ourselves, what do we truly want?
“Most murder cases and heinous crimes recorded are done by people under the influence of these drugs. The Police love you truly and that’s why we are giving this advice.”
