The legalisation of industrial hemp and medical cannabis for economic and medical benefits is gradually coming close to reality in Nigeria. Recently, the Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Hon. Benjamin Okezie Kalu stated in a press conference in Akure, Ondo State that the House of Representatives is set to legalise the use of Indian hemp for economic benefits. This legalisation will start to take shape with the passing of the Dangerous Drugs Act (Amendment) Bill, 2020, presented before the House of Representatives. It will become law if the Senate concurs and the President signs it into law.

Hon. Kalu noted at the press conference that there will be a stakeholders conference on 7 and 8 June 2021. The core of the discussion will be on the economic and medical benefits of the plant; the licensing and regulation of the production; as well as the distribution channels for the plant.
