Khalifa Muhammadu Sanusi II asked them to concentrate on educating the public, particularly about the serious repercussions of the pervasive drug misuse.

The Anti-Drug misuse Group’s president, Ambassador Maryam Hassan, said in her speech that they had come to update the Emir on the group’s operations, specifically the battle against drug misuse among the general population, particularly among women and young people.

She said, “We are organizing workshops for teachers and holders of traditional titles to raise awareness.

We are seeking the support of the Kano emirate to ensure the passage of the bill in the National Assembly.”
