]]> Hiplife musician Captain Planet has told Citi Showbiz in an exclusive interview that he has not broken away from the 4×4 music trio as has been recently speculated.

According to him, the rumour circulating that the group has collapsed after the release of his latest hit song, is not true.

“People are asking if I have left 4×4. But I am still with them. The group is still intact and people should expect more songs from 4×4 and more singles from Captain Planet,” he said.

Recently, it was reported that the foundation of the group was wobbly and that a possible break up was imminent.

Captain Planet whose latest ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl’ is gaining rotation on most radio stations had earlier released several solo projects like ‘The Good Bad Girl,’ ‘Sangbelegbe’ and ‘No New Friends.’

Talking about the motivation behind his latest banger ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl,’ he said he composed the song from conversations that go on in our environment.

“I heard a lot of stories from friends and what we call barbers-shop stories and those from movies and this is a story everything girl or guy can relate to,” he said.

When asked if he had had a personal experience before he said “yes, I have snatched people’s girlfriends from them before and people have also taken my girl before but I couldn’t say it because I feared my friends would laugh at me,” he quipped.

Captain Planet’s latest hit ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl’ which features Kofi Kinaata talks about how painful it when one’s girlfriend is snatched from him and how enjoyable it is when someone takes another person’s girlfriend.

Less than a month after its released ‘Obi Agye Obi Girl’ has become an anthem among music lovers.

The Greater Accra Regional Office of the Narcotics Control Board (NACOB) is investigating the production and sale of cannabis (wee) laced biscuits in the Ashaiman municipality.

According to officials, the biscuits, which were being produced locally, were also being offered for sale to unsuspecting members of the public, including schoolchildren.

Officials have therefore, mounted a search for an unnamed vendor said to be distributing the product within the municipality.

The Greater Accra Regional Director of NACOB, Ms Victoria Esinam Assah-Offei, disclosed this at a sensitisation programme on the dangers of drug abuse among young people for schoolchildren within the Kpone-Katamanso District.

According to her, the sale of the biscuits was making illegal drug use among young people more pronounced.

The sale of the marijuana-laced biscuits, she said, was derailing efforts of the board in ensuring that incidents of illegal drug use among the youth were reduced marginally.

Marijuana does not reduce depression

Ms Assah-Offei noted that the perception that marijuana (wee) was a depressant and improved retentive memory was false.

Such falsehoods, she indicated, were retrogression gains being made on public education about the use of drugs.

She challenged schoolchildren and younger people to reject the drugs and report people who offered it to them.

Regional Minister

The Greater Accra Regional Minister, Nii Laryea Afotey-Agbo, regretted that the drug trade had taken a centre stage within the West African sub-region.

According to him, not only did illicit drug trade pose a security threat to the sub-region, but it also posed serious challenges to the health and future of the people.

“The drug phenomenon creates insecurity in our society and the dangers associated with it are equally worrying,” Nii Afotey-Agbo stressed.

He also lamented that people across the sub-region were taking advantage of the ECOWAS protocols on the free movement of goods and people to engage in the drug trade.

“The idea of the protocol is to facilitate the movement of persons in their quest for legitimate business for the benefit of their countries and not for illicit drug trade,” the minister said.

He was hopeful that the programme would be sustained to ensure that drug use among young people was reduced.
