Dr.

Zanetor Agyeman-Rawlings is sounding the alarm on an issue many Ghanaians tend to brush aside - gaming and betting addiction, especially among the youth.

Speaking at a sensitisation programme on gambling addiction and mental wellness held at Accra Technical University, the Member of Parliament for Klottey Korle didn't mince her words.

She acknowledged that while society often fixates on substance abuse - particularly "red" - there's a more subtle, growing problem that isn't getting enough attention. "I know that the common thing that we are all hearing is the addiction to drugs, especially red, but the most subtle one is the one associated with behaviour that you do not recognise as addictive or drug abuse, and that is gaming addiction," she stated.
