Malawi’s President Chikwera declines assent to cannabis bill
Malawi President Lazarus Chakwera has refused to sign into law a bill which allows the cultivation of local varieties of cannabis with high Tetrahydrocannabinol, or THC content. THC is a substance found in cannabis which makes people high. Last month, some religious groups complained in a letter to President Chakwera that parliament had passed the law without proper consultation. Lameck Masina reports from Blantyre.
