South Africa to setup Marijuana (‘WEE’) College to boost employment.

Marijuana which makes people feel bigger than their real selves is gaining recognition and legalization in some countries.  Cannabis has probably destroyed more lives in Ghana than atomic bomb has.

But the Department of Rural Development and Agrarian Reform in the Eastern Cape has approved the development of a cannabis college as a means of creating jobs in the impoverished province.

The training facility will upskill farmers in the growing and distribution of cannabis, and will assist with seed, fertilisers and fencing.

It is set to be built in the Ingquza Hill Local Municipality in Lusisiki, picked because of its ideal growing conditions.

“The Eastern Cape is constantly searching for ideas and ways on how to contribute to the growth of domestic product of the province, said the MEC for Rural Development and Agrarian Reform, Nomakhosazana Meth, in an interview with 702 monitored by Ghanashowbiz.com said.

“Lusiski is known to be ‘the world’s capital of cannabis’ and this is a very important industry, so we need to exploit it in our province. We want to make sure we embrace cannabis for medical and commercial purposes.”
