The plea came following the untimely death of his youngest son AK47. Much as mystery surrounded the cause of death several sections of the public pointed to drugs after reports that bits of weed had been found at Dejavu bar where AK47 met his death.

Busabala beach that belongs to a popular musician notorious for the habit is a favourite hangout for youth that flock the place on weekends and festive days to puff away with abandon. Busabala is notorious for drug abuse. The Police have often clashed with residents over smoking marijuana and other crimes.
