“I worked at a bar when I was young. Sometimes when people come to the bar and they are done smoking, I pick the last piece from the ground and hide to smoke it. That was how it all started.

Later I meet another stubborn kid who was just like me, he introduced me to weed smoking. Dr. Likee (Ras Nene) disclosed to Delay.

“My mother warned and advised me to quit smoking on several occasions but I never paid heed to her,” he added.
