For around the past year, I’ve written about the pack of Nigerian pushers selling cocaine while sitting on the steps off Wyndham Street that leads to the clubs Drop and Gekko, restaurant Marouche and The Kebab House.
Finally, the Morning Post has cottoned on and have been writing about this “trade” taking place in Tsimshatsui and around the infamous Chungking Mansions. Letters to the newspaper have also pointed this out.
However, what’s going on in Wyndham Street is all the more serious as it’s happening under the very noses- no pun intended- of the police.
Are these Nigerians stopped and searched? Nope. The local gendarmes rush around trying to close bars and restaurants over liquor licenses.
When the Blue Berets come down that area they do a Houdini disappearing act- only to reappear at 3am when these gendarmes go off duty.
And what about how this same pack are now preying on the under-age expat kids who are allowed in to a popular bar in Wanchai and where they buy their grams of coke outside and in broad nightlight?
The new theme line for Hong Kong from the geniuses at the Hong Kong Tourist Association is Happy Hong Kong.
Guess they know more about the city’s cocaine trade that the police and the Narcotics Division?
