Addressing the attendees and dignitaries, the CEO of Cabic promotions and management, Mr Ivan Bruce Cudjoe warmly welcomed all protocols observed at the event and shined the light on Cabic as a an organization that has stage as incredible two major big international fight night in Ghana and has so far won three WBO Africa and Asia Pacific title belts for the republic of Ghana.

“In Cabic’s work so far, the company have observed the youth across the country is actively engaged in severe drug abuse substances like tramadol, cannabis, wee or marijuana and sniffing of glue among other harmful drugs which has become of great concern to CABIC promotion and management” – He stated in his address.

Mr. Ivan Bruce urged all and sundry to join force in the fight against this growing social canker through boxing for the benefit of mother Ghana and its forward stride to greatness.

According to statistics from the NACOB – Narcotic Control Board, about fifty thousand (50,000) people in Ghana, particularly the young are in drug abuse with the use of marijuana and cocaine by the youth in junior and senior high schools and the tertiary level are on the ascendency. The survey also suggests that out of the total number of 50,000 drug users in Ghana, 35,000 were students from Junior/Senior high schools and tertiary institutions aged between 12 and 35years while the remaining 15,000 were adults with 9,000 being males and 6,000 females. It has been argued that much like in the United States, drug awareness programs and luxury drug rehab centers will be needed to combat the growing crisis.
