Drugs Cause Serious Offenses – FBC News

Police Inspector Usaia Donu says increased cannabis use among young people has led to an increase in serious criminal offenses such as theft and violence.

Inspector Donu sheds light on the serious consequences of drug use, highlighting the dangers of drugs such as methamphetamine, heroin and cocaine.

Speaking on International Day of Girls at Marist Brothers High School this week, he highlighted that these substances can have serious effects on the central nervous system and overall mental health.

He emphasizes the increasing prevalence of methamphetamine, or “ice,” warning that this powerful stimulant carries serious risks, causing users to experience extreme highs that can result in reckless behavior.

“Meth or ice is above the high level, which is called rush. It can come down to eight different experiences. I was in Raiwai, doing training, going to training. I spoke to the youth in Raiwai. There are so many young people affected by meth.”

Inspector Donu emphasizes that gaining wisdom through education and spiritual guidance is essential to overcoming the challenges posed by drug use.

“It can affect your educational career, especially the laws we have. If someone is involved in a law, or convicted by the law, remember that it will take ten years to recover your data.”

He also urges young people to remain vigilant against the lure of drugs and prioritize their mental health and wellbeing.
