I like people who don’t ‘form’. Form is the current terminology for ‘pretend’ in Nigeria. When it comes to a nation, the earlier they understood themselves, the better.
Yesterday marked a milestone in the history of Canada. It was the day cannabis started being sold in public in the country.
The country thus became the second country to legalize the sale of cannabis. The first is Uruguay.
In fact, the country is already looking at the economic effects in terms of commercial benefits.
It seems the farmers had been preparing for this legalization for years. On the telly, we were seeing images of green weed farms. On the streets too, weed that was ready to be sold to users was in abundance.
A ki nwa ori ti nile Iku
Ati gbigbe ati tutu

Bawo le se fe si?
You see, human beings always want to be free. However, there can’t be absolute freedom in that the freedom of Mr A ends where Mr B’s freedom begins.
Let’s take the situation of an eighteen year old chap. The chances are that he would have had some girl he’s craving for. What would the parents do?
Of course, I would encourage the chap to bring his girl home.
The Canadian authorities had seen that many people were using cannabis covertly. The issue of something to be taken into the system is very risky if not properly handled.
They therefore thought legalizing it wouldn’t be a bad idea. In any case, there are already laws on where a person could smoke. And of course, violation comes with huge fines.
No matter the way you look at it, the best government is always that which satisfies most of its citizens while giving a lot of rights to the minority!
In my country, Nigeria, is the majority taken care of, not to talk of the minority?
Sorry, the minority is the ruling class and they take care of themselves!
Of course, a people will always deserve its leadership. If we refuse to fall in the course of pursuing an ideal, we might fall and die for the filmiest of reasons!!!
