Abstract
Drug abuse has a devastating consequence for individuals, families and society. It has wrecked the fortunes of many youths who roam the streets as mental cases, abandoned to their fate by society. The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA, has established radio public affairs programmes to address drug abuse related issues in Anambra State. It becomes necessary to ascertain if the radio campaign has led to the reduction of drug abuse among youths in Onitsha. The survey research method was used to obtain and analyze data from youths residing in Onitsha metropolis, as potential and real uses of banned drugs. The purposive sampling method was used to deal with issues related to sample size and its allocation to study units within the area of study. It is the consequence of an interface between processed information and its implication for the youth receiver that is the focus of this study.
