Abstract

Though previous literature establishes that abuse of drugs may amount to numerous health risks, they, however, fail to present the extent to which such cases could constitute a threat to national and regional security. Therefore, this research sheds light on the extent to which drug abuse constitutes an existential threat to national security by focusing on the use of Tramadol extending from terrorist organizations to youth in Nigeria and Cameroon. In general, Tramadol is considered an analgesic pill that treats severe and moderate pain. But the outcome of the analysis in this research reveals the extent to which tramadol is prevalent among the terrorist and organized crime groups in Nigeria, and it is the driver of youth violence and heightened crime rates in Cameroonian cities of Douala and Yaounde.
