Egyaa: Youth cautioned against harmful effects of substance abuse

The staff of the Leading Telecommunications Giant in Ghana, MTN, have cautioned students of the Egyaa Number 2 Basic School located in Mfantseman in the Central Region on the effects and dangers of “substance abuse”, a pattern of repeated drug or alcohol use that often interferes with health, work or social relationships.

This was part of a training to provide career guidance and education on drugs and the need to stay focused as students concentrate on their books as they yearn for a better future for themselves.
