Rapper Jay Bahd from Ghana has caused a stir when he says that marijuana use, which is referred to as “wee” in Ghanaian culture, is not a sin and is instead comparable to “mogya duro,” or “blood tonic.”
In an open discussion on Ghpage’s Rush Hour Show, the “Odo” hitmaker shamelessly supported smoking “wee,” stressing that it should be seen as a “blood tonic.”
According to Jay Bhad, marijuana should be viewed as a “blood tonic” since it increases appetite, which promotes better eating practices.
In an effort to strengthen his case, he compared the use of marijuana to divine wisdom, saying that criticizing its use is the same as doubting God’s wisdom because he created everything and declared it holy for human consumption.
The rapper’s vocal position on marijuana use for recreational purposes clarifies the current discussion about the legalization and social acceptance of cannabis in different countries.
He delicately suggests that, for him, smoking marijuana has therapeutic or medicinal benefits rather than just being an indulgence by comparing it to “mogya duro.”

In other news, Bullet has described the decision of the Food and Drugs Authority (FDA) banning Ghanaian celebrities from promoting alcoholic products as ‘senseless.’
Recall that, the FDA barred Ghanaian celebrities from advertising alcoholic brands to ensure children were not influenced by celebrities into thinking that alcohol is good.
Speaking after the court proceedings, Bullet said the directive from the Food And Drug Authority banning celebrities from advertising in alcoholic products as one that “doesn’t make sense”.
According to him, he sees the decision by FDA as discrimination to the celebrities. He explained that celebrities are also Ghanaians and they also need to survive, therefore the FDA can’t issue a law to prohibit celebrities from advertising alcoholic products while exempting an ordinary Ghanaian.
Bullet added that, celebrities can influence children from consuming alcoholic same as they promote them.
Bullet lamented that the ban has affected their activities in the sense that they no longer get alcoholic companies to sponsor their programmes.
