Nyagatare Prison is a home to minor offenders.<\/p>\n<p>According to Ngoma District Police Commander (DPC), Albert Gakara, marijuana smoking in schools is rampant.<\/p>\n<p>He said that the girl admitted she liked marijuana because it made her feel good.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;That the suspect is above 14 is enough to prosecute her &#8230; She is one of those with juvenile criminal tendencies. We are on the alert because many students are involved in the habit,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Teachers began monitoring the suspects after getting a tip from a student who said that they smoke marijuana at a hide-out near the school. Only the girl was arrested but the others fled.<\/p>\n<p>Patrick Ndahayo, a resident of Kazo, said that on his way to work, he passes groups of students who give out a scent of marijuana.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Teenagers are at risk of developing serious alcohol and drug problems. Abusing alcohol and tobacco at a young age has negative health effects,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p>Ngoma Mayor, Francois Ntiyotwagira, said that the issue of drug trafficking and use in schools and communities needs consistent vigilance.<\/p>\n<p>He said that all stakeholders should work with security organs and local leaders to curb the situation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Cannabis or Marijuana, is a big problem in our region &#8230; when it comes to students, everyone needs to wake up,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<fieldset>\n<legend align=\"center\"><strong>More News on allAfrica.com<\/strong><\/legend>\n<\/fieldset>\n<p>AllAfrica &#8211; All the Time<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read More:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/allafrica.com\/stories\/201106141848.html\" title=\"16-Year Old Girl Arrested With Marijuana\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">16-Year Old Girl Arrested With Marijuana<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Stephen Rwembeho 12 June 2011 Ngoma \u2014 A 16 year old school girl was arrested after police found her in possession of Marijuana.
