Senior Regulator of the Food and Drugs Authority in the Bono Region, Kwame Sekyi Yeboah has expressed worry over how the demand for Shisha has increased in the Ghanaian society.
According to him, this has become a new trend which if care is not taken, will have a negative impact on the youth.
Shisha is a type of combustible tobacco that is smoked with a hookah (waterpipe).
Shisha smoking, also called narghile, water pipe, hookah or Hubble bubble smoking, originates from the Middle East and certain areas of Asia, but has recently become more popular in the world at large.
Mr. Kwame Sekyi Yeboah made this known when speaking on Ark in the Morning monitored by Soiree News as Monday marks No Tobacco Day. This year's theme of World No Tobacco day is "Quit tobacco to be a winner."
He did not only speak against the smoking of tobacco in public but also issued a stern warning to parents who involve their children below eighteen years in the act.
According to him the law prohibits children less than 18 years to even hold a stick of cigarette.
