The National Youth Council of Nigeria (NYCN), Cross River Chapter, has advised youths in the state to shun illicit drugs. Mr Ndiyo Ndiyo, the state Chairman of NYCN, gave the advice on Tuesday in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Calabar. He said that the call became necessary in view of the high consumption of illicit drugs by youths in the state. “It is very unfortunate that young persons are indulging in drugs daily without looking at the dangers involved. “I am calling on all youths in Cross River to shun the intake of hard and illicit drugs,’’ Ndiyo said.
