Ghanaian media personality Afia Schwarzenegger has expressed her concerns regarding the health challenges faced by fellow celebrity Moesha Boduong.
In a heartfelt video message, Afia suggested that Moesha’s recent health issues may be linked to her use of cannabis-infused pills, which she claims have led to serious side effects, including a stroke.
Afia’s emotional commentary highlights a growing concern about substance abuse among young women in Ghana, particularly those from the Gen Z demographic.
She emphasised that the issue is becoming increasingly alarming, as more young people are turning to various drugs, especially in pill form, without fully understanding the risks involved.
In her video, Afia warned about the dangers of drug addiction, describing how it often begins innocently with someone offering a couple of pills.
This seemingly harmless introduction can quickly spiral into a dependency, where individuals find themselves seeking more.
She pointed out that all drugs come with potential side effects and urged the youth to exercise caution in their choices.
Drawing from her own experiences, Afia conveyed a message of caution, stressing that the allure of quick fixes can lead to dire consequences.
She highlighted that those who may encourage risky behaviours often disappear when the fallout occurs, leaving individuals to navigate their struggles alone.
The conversation initiated by Afia not only reflects the challenges faced by individuals like Moesha but also serves as a broader warning to the youth about the importance of making informed choices regarding substance use.
As discussions about mental health and addiction continue to gain traction, it is clear that community awareness and support will play a vital role in addressing these critical issues.
“I’m almost in tears as I speak. We need to stay alert.”
“It starts with someone giving you one or two pills, and then you become addicted and start looking for more. Every drug has side effects, and we need to be careful.”
“I’m older than most of you, and I’ve seen and heard things you haven’t. Be careful, because when things go wrong, the friends and people who pushed you won’t be there to help.”
