Cannabis in Uganda
Cannabis in Uganda is illegal; the drug is locally referred to as bhang.[1] Cannabis is the only drug produced within the country.[2]
History
The British as early as 1902 banned the production of "opium" in Uganda, noting that opium "includes... also the preparation known as bhang, ganja, churus, and chandoo natron".[3]
A 1902 British ethnological work noted that cannabis was used in Uganda, only by men, and particularly smoked in a water pipe. Young men of fighting age were not allowed to smoke cannabis.[4]
