By Kponken, Abuja 

The official speaking to Amuwo Odofin electorate 1 of Lagos State, Mojisola Alli-Macaulay, says most Nigerian young people are high on drugs constantly. 

Alli-Macaulay said this during an entire at the Lagos State House of Assembly on the plundering and anarchy in the wake of the #EndSARS fight that was captured by gangsters. 

She said the National Orientation Agency should be alive to its obligations and help change the mentality of the young people. 

The administrator stated, "The National Orientation Agency needs to will work. We have to start to orientate our youngsters. They need individuals who can converse with them occasionally. They are high on drugs constantly, a large portion of them. They go to web-based media and state a wide range of things. I'm even frightened to give my little youngsters telephones since I am terrified of what they may see via online media. It is that awful." 

Alli-Macaulay said joblessness ought not be a reason for plundering, adding that joblessness was not restrictive to Nigeria. 

"It isn't joblessness that ought to be the motivation behind why adolescents should come out and start to make trouble. There is joblessness over the world, even in the United States. 

"I educated in the UK and I saw a great deal of youngsters who were not utilized yet they didn't become gangsters. For what reason wouldn't we be able to look inwards and search for answers for our issues?" she inquired. 

The legislator contended that a jobless alumni could find a new line of work in the casual area as opposed to griping about joblessness. 

"For what reason can't simply the youngsters look, search for their gifts? Regardless of whether you are an alumni, what prevents you from being a creator or an expert tile man and make a brand of it? There is no reason for being a hooligan," she said.
