AFC says alarmed at surge in narcotics and ‘recreational drug’ use

The Alliance for Change (AFC) has expressed alarm at what it sees as the prevalence of drug use in Guyana as well as the quantity of narcotics being interdicted by law enforcement.

The AFC in a press release on Friday noted what it described as “a surge in narcotics and ‘recreational’ drug use spreading in Guyana like wildfire.”

The release went on to highlight various drug busts across the country to bolster its claim.
