Drugs

Are rather too easy to get. I have been offered coke in Accra, Ghana, at Kokrobitey the fishing village and Danquar Circle, Osu , by people who drop in the whole, Oh I can hook you up with drugs if you want them, line in between regualr chit chat.

Fancy escaping the madness to deal with more madness around me.

Last night was a classic offer. Was hanging out with a friend I really suspect of being a dealer. He calls someone, gives them my number and says whatever you need to buy, call him. I told him to be good to you.

I said no drugs thanks.

He said there is no way I am not on something and whatever it is, this here is your man for it.

He is now an ex friend.

I dislike people who offer me things they have never seen me take.

Trying to mess up a great life.

And besides, I have an old friend who says drugs are not what they used, "they are getting pumped on the equivalent of omo," I believe he said a few years ago.
