Parliament has today adopted a motion by Ntchisi North legislator Boniface Kadzamira, asking government to legalise the growing and use of industrial hemp in the country.

Kadzamira moved the motion “considering the enormous economic, medical and nutritional value industrial hemp has.”

But some MPs have urged government to exercise caution on the issue, fearing some unscrupulous people could take advantage of the legislation to promote the growing of illicit Indian hemp
(marijuana).
