Naomi Msosoli who stays with a single parent – her mother – said of the drugs and alcohol types she knows, she has once taken shooter – plastic bottled liquor.
There was a match at our school and I was a bit shy as a member of the morale team. One guy asked me to drink a little which I did,” said Naomi.
Unfortunately, she said, she did not remember what happened afterwards. “Some time later I attended a training organised by MAGGA on the effects of drug and substance abuse, and I made a decision to quit right away,” she said.
Naomi understands the effects of drinking alcohol now.
“The effects are that you can easily get an unwanted pregnancy since many boys take advantage of girls in a drunken state. You do not reason properly once you’re intoxicated,” she said.
