Economist David Ndii is the latest public figure to call for the legalization of marijuana in the country.
He insisted that marijuana had no effect in the human life revealing that he managed to pass his exams despite smoking bhang.
” Marijuana was criminalized by colonialists. It follows that if we decriminalize it, the crime of smoking bhang will cease to exist. I smoked bhang occasionally in secondary school (age 12-16), still topped my school in O-Level exams,” he wrote.

Ndii called out on the Kenyan government for being hypocritical in the criminalization of marijuana insinuating that renowned world leaders take in the smoke.
Bob Marley, Fela Kuti, Bill Clinton, Barrack Obama, Uhuru Kenyatta, Mike Sonko among others. Criminalisation of marijuana is hypocritical, oppressive. Only poor people go to jail for marijuana offences. #LegaliseMarijuana https://t.co/sUowcZtlsb
