About the Book
"A War Without Guns:
The Synthetic Drug Crisis Destroying Liberia and West Africa – A Call to National Awakening"
“A War Without Guns: The Synthetic Drug Crisis Destroying Liberia and West Africa – A Call to National Awakening” is authored by Dr. Nyah Vululleh. This read is based on the fact that Liberia and West Africa are caught in a silent war. Unlike past conflicts, this war has no soldiers, no artillery, and no visible frontlines. Its weapons are synthetic drugs, cheap, powerful, and destructive, that are spreading through communities at an alarming pace. Substances like tramadol and kush are leaving families broken, schools emptied, and futures stolen.
Dr. Vululleh confronts this crisis with honesty and urgency, showing how fragile institutions, lingering wounds of war, and widespread poverty created the perfect conditions for traffickers to thrive. Once a land struggling to rebuild, Liberia has become both a route and a marketplace for these substances. With nearly half its population under eighteen, the stakes could not be higher; the nation’s future generation is under attack.
What makes this book stand out is its balance of truth and guidance. It does not stop at exposing the damage. Still, it offers real solutions, strengthening port security, expanding treatment and rehabilitation, protecting schools, empowering families and faith groups, and focusing law enforcement where it matters most.
A War Without Guns is a wake-up call, but it is also a roadmap. It challenges every citizen, policymaker, and partner to face this hidden war with courage and unity. Above all, it insists that recovery is possible and Liberia’s future can still be reclaimed.
