This study investigated the effect of health education on attitude towards illicit drug use among secondary school students in Diobu, Rivers State. Two (2) objectives, two (2) research questions and one (1) hypothesis guided the study. Quasi-experimental design was adopted. The researcher purposively selects the sample size of 148 students in their intact class from the population of 532 senior secondary school students from the selected senior secondary school in Diobu, Rivers State. A structured and validated instrument titled “Effect of Health Education on Knowledge of Illicit Drug Use Questionnaire” (AIDUQ) with a reliability coefficient of 0.82 was used to collect data. Descriptive statistics of frequency, percentage, mean, and standard deviation were used to answer the research questions while inferential statistics of chi-square and ANCOVA were used to test the hypotheses at a 0.05 level of significance. It was found that most of the respondent performed better in the post-test stage as there was change in attitude towards illicit drug among the students. This implies that intervention has a significant effect on the secondary school students. Subsequently, the finding showed that age do not significantly affect the effect of health education on attitude towards illicit drug use among secondary school students in Diobu, Rivers State. Based on the findings, the study concluded that health education had positive effect on secondary school students’ attitude towards illicit drug use. Finally, the study recommended among others that schools in Diobu should collaborate with drug law agencies/drug educators to conduct quarterly seminar for students on the risk of illicit drug to ensure a change in attitudes, also age were not significant in this study, further studies should be conduct on age bracket using a larger sample size and government should involve parents and community leaders in health education programs to provide a supportive environment for students and reduce peer pressure influences.

I present several ideas to stimulate the readers’ curiosity so that they seek, find, and modify their inner world. I present an analysis of the relationships between the Ladder model of Plato’s Cave, Schopenhauer Representations and Nietzsche’s master and slaves. The impossibility of knowing how similar my normal state of consciousness is to the state of consciousness of other human primates is disputed. The existence of different levels of understanding is abundantly exemplified. The generation and destruction of the Demons within us is analyzed in detail. Their destruction is a necessary step in progressing into the higher states of consciousness of the human mode. I reaffirm my ideas that the history of human primates is created by the actions of some individuals and never of the masses. I comment on the role of 'fear' in the development of the first cosmogonies.
