The boys allegedly chew the root of the grass to boost their sexuality.

Tema boys chewing rabbit grass to enlarge their manhood
Some youth in Tema Manhean have resorted to the
chewing of ‘rabbit grass’ to enlarge their
manhood in a bid to engage in “satisfactory”
pre-marital sex.

The Ghana News Agency gathered that the young boys
wash and chew the root of the grass popular known
as “juice” which is said to be given to
rabbits to boost their sexuality and
reproduction.

Those using it easily get access to the plant
which can be found in any bush therefore no
authority could restrict its usage among them.

Dr John Yabani, Tema Metropolitan Health Director,
told the GNA that the usage of the grass among the
youth has come to his knowledge and was working on
educating them against the act.

Dr Yabani reminded the youth that the size of
their manhood would increase as they grow
therefore the need to desist from drinking and
chewing unapproved items in a bid to enlarge
them.

He added that depending on the intake of such
items could also have serious health implications
for them.

He revealed that some of the youth have also
started smoking fruity scented cigarettes to
outwit their parents and teachers.

The said cigarette which comes in different
flavours including strawberries, cherry, apple and
mint is thinner and longer than the ordinary
ones.

Dr Yabani explained that the flavours were at the
filter end of the cigarette so by the time they
finished smoking the piece, the fruity scent
overshadows the tobacco making it difficult for
people to associate them to cigarette smoking.

He cautioned the youth against smoking of
cigarette irrespective of its flavour as they
stood the risk of contracting respiratory and
other health problems.

The Metropolitan Health Director also urged
parents and teachers to be vigilant in monitoring
their children as they guide them into responsible
adulthood.
