Wonderment. Thailand which used to have some of the most repressive anti-marijuana laws in the world has come to its senses and legalized recreational cannabis consumption while commercializing medical marijuana so as to cash in on that highly lucrative market.

Now the Thai government has stepped up its game by actually GIVING cannabis plants to its citizens free of charge, for them to grow and consume to their heart's content in the comfort of their homes. Check it out in this link if you cannot believe this news item.

Another reggae weed song is certainly in order at this time, all else being equal.

Thailand legalized cannabis in 2020, and now that nation is riding an economic boom from the production and export of medical marijuana refined components.

Lesotho's economy is undergoing a dramatic transformation as millions of dollars in cannabis farming investment revenue flows into that mountain kingdom from the industrialized West. Six days ago this youtube video was posted, showing the rendering of a gigantic newly commissioned indoor cannabis cultivation facility that will produce and refine medical cannabis for export and local medicinal applications.

The above soon-to-open mega factory of medical cannabis was funded by Israeli investors who bring to the table extensive research findings from Israel, the world's current focal point of cannabis research.

Meanwhile, in Zimbabwe, the cannabis industry is already moving full steam ahead with active government for farmers, who will all reap fortunes in a very short time window.

The above industrial cannabis farm in Zimbabwe is on course to reap $2.4 million USD in export profits this August 2022 when the factory's first harvest is exported to the EU after very simple packaging processes.

Zimbabwe is also encouraging the creation of industrial hemp farms whose product contains NO intoxicating THC, but is instead used to create fabric, rope, paper, and other products with huge economic potential.

In Uganda, a major cannabis farm called Together Pharma has just sent 400KG of cannabis flower to , and thereby reaped some serious multi-million dollar dividends in the process. Below is an interview with the CEO of that economy-boosting new industrial production facility for medical cannabis.

South Africa has quickly become Africa's trailblazer in the rapid deployment of cannabis production mega-industries. This new video describes a high-tech hydroponic cannabis production factory in which the plants root in water and not soil, so as to maximize the delivery of dissolved fertilizers under controlled lighting and ventilation parameters.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1QrZLbc8Co

On a slightly smaller scale, another medical marijuana production facility licensed in South Africa is detailed in the video below. This is a veritable money machine in action, pellow kwantiri-mans, so watch and learn, in anticipation of when Nigeria FINALLY removes medical cannabis from the list of dangerous Class A drugs that are so recognized by the WHO.

Finally here is a slightly less sophisticated licensed cannabis grow in South Africa that relies more on mother nature than on expensive artificial lighting and automated nutrient delivery systems.

It will interest many to learn that former heavyweight boxing champion Mike Tyson is one of the well-funded American investors that are flocking to Malawi to create cannabis industries there. Here in this video clip, Iron Mike shows of the rooftop cannabis garden he created for a wealthy client who recently bought a $40 million dollar mansion in the Los Angeles area, and wanted to grow the finest weed money can buy on the rooftop garden.

Rwanda emerged from its devastating civil war in the 1990s to become Africa's Gold Standard for technological development and environmental protection. Rwanda is the first African country to adopt drones for the delivery of medical supplies in rural areas. Rwanda's capital Kigali has been described as the cleanest city in all of Africa. Among the trend-setting policies that keep Rwanda clean is a total BAN on plastic bags, so as to drastically reduce the ecological damage caused by discarded plastic bags.

Rwanda is also among the African nations that has legalized cannabis production for their pharmaceutical industry and for export, thereby tapping into a multi billion dollar global industry.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GVBnnG33jU

The lady minister of cannabis production for Rwanda commented that rose flowers, one of her nation's current hard-currency export earners, fetches $300,000 per cultivated hectare of rose bushes, which amounts to a trivial sum when compared to the $10 MILLION dollars worth of medicinal marijuana that could be harvested from that same one hectare of farmland every year. In short, processed cannabis harvest is worth 30 times the value of fresh rose flowers cultivated on the same acreage of farmland.

I believe that when cannabis becomes legal, government benefit from that as well, so I don't understand why it's not legal everywhere. In my place, it's pretty hard to start growing cannabis, and there are many articles like this one to help people figure everything out, but at least it's possible to get medical marijuana.

Cannabis is extremely easy to grow from seed, and seeds are available online to fit any specification. Those wishing to get high can buy seeds with THC content as high as 30%, while those seeking to obtain any number of other medical benefits that do NOT include a feeling of elevated well-being, can order cannabis seeds whose plants are high in CBD that facilitates peaceful sleep, but does not alter one's state of consciousness. Nigeria could also reap massive financial windfalls by selling cannabis seeds, which can sell for as much as $20 USD for ONE.

New medical applications for cannabis are being discovered on a regular basis. Today Yahoo News mentions recent scientific findings suggesting that for middle-aged people, regular consumption of cannabis can IMPROVE their mental sharpness and memory by compensating for the human brain's age-related loss of cannabinoid receptors.

The African Amazon Warrior Nigerian lawmaker Princess Onuoha has NOT given up on her historic quest to introduce legislation that will LEGALIZE and REGULATE the cultivation, consumption, sale, and export of medical marijuana in Nigeria. The following news report details how physical FIGHTS erupted in the Nigerian House of Representatives this past May 2023, when this landmark legislative bill was reintroduced for a second hearing.

The tide of history is on the side of Princess Onuoha, and her bold initiative to decriminalize cannabis in Nigeria WILL prevail SOON.

Just a few weeks ago in December 2023, Ghana quietly ed into law the complete decriminalization of cannabis for commercial cultivation aimed at supplying the $30 BILLION medical marijuana global market. This masterstroke of legislative genius will position Ghana as a major investment Mecca for the cannabis industry, thanks to abundant year-round sunshine, rich agricultural soil, and cheap labor.

Nigerian lawmakers need now look no further than Nigeria's close regional neighbor, Ghana to witness how the influx of BILLIONS of dollars, pounds, and euros will transform Ghana's economic landscape for the phenomenally better, in as little as THREE years from that December 2023 day this historic, destiny-changing decriminalization of cannabis was enshrined in the laws of the land for the lasting benefit of the Ghanaian people and their international investment partners.

Here is a video clip about the unfolding mega-success story that Nigeria must emulate NOW before other African countries hog the export market.

So what's the latest on this bill?

Paraman:
So what's the latest on this bill?

To the best of my knowledge as of this March 2024 day, Nigeria's cannabis decriminalization initiative has once again lapsed into a state of suspended animation as the various opposed forces have maneuvered themselves into a legislative stalemate over this vital matter that could so rapidly lift millions of rural Nigerians out of poverty while generating billions of tax revenue dollars for virtually ALL states that comprise the Nigerian federation.

One can only hope that Nigerian legislators are paying close attention to the history that is being made right now in Ghana, as the good year 2024 kicks off. Now, at long last, a geographically close sister nation to Nigeria has bid farewell to that utterly pointless colonial-era cannabis prohibition, by boldly stepping on board the multi-billion dollar cannabis revenue train, thus setting the stage for the creation of VAST wealth throughout Ghana, as investors from near and far converge on that enlightened nation laden down with eye-watering sums of hard currency ready to invest in the local economy.

Wake up Nigeria and smell the dollars. Legalize it.

Jakumo, the man with the sights of a thousand prophets.
If only they will listen to you.

The US state of Colorado is second only to California when it comes to exploiting the economic potential of cannabis be that medical or recreational. This nearly hour-long video clip highlights many tangible economic benefits accruing to towns and cities in America where cannabis prohibition has been consigned to the dustbin of history.

Imagine being free to grow one's crop of connoisseur-grade cannabis in the comfort of one's garden, as is done in many parts of Africa where colonial-era cannabis prohibition has been consigned to the dustbin of history.

Excellent idea. The problem is that the people you are talking to are so blinded by religion and hypocritical conservatism that any suggestion outside the box of their conditioned heads is almost impossible for them to contemplate.

For any stoners out there who like to hear Reggae weed anthems, here is a catchy tune with a cannabis theme.

Please accept my condolences on the complete loss of your sanity. Maybe you were smoking P or heroin, and not cannabis.

Your wickedness is confusing me. Lol

Legalese cannabis and build three more psychiatric hospitals in each of the states of the federation because the number of mad people will increase.

Legalese cannabis and build three more psychiatric hospitals in each of the states of the federation because the number of mad people will increase.

Years ago, the stoner in me would compel me to scoff at any suggestion of a linkage between cannabis consumption and psychosis, but it turns out that marijuana is NOT a good choice of drug for anyone whose grip on rationality is tenuous due to heredity or injury-related factors.

That said, the medical benefits of cannabis as a curative for myriad ailments are meticulously documented and amount to sufficient evidence establishing irrefutably that a REGULATED medical cannabis industry would yield net benefits for society on balance.

Alcohol kills thousands of drunks annually, along with thousands of innocent motorists who fall victim to drunk drivers, yet it is freely available over the counter in most non-Islamic countries. Cannabis, which has yet to record one single overdose-related fatality since the dawn of time, remains banned in most parts of the world. It is time this absurd colonialist-era legal anachronism is consigned to the dustbin of history so that market forces can engender a multi-billion-dollar medical cannabis industry in Nigeria by 2026.
