DJ Sbu has got the internet riled up again after he shared a video on social media of young men who appear to be under the influence of a substance and warned against the use of nyaope.

The video shows three men sitting on the stairs of a house struggling to maintain their balance.

"This really hurts my feelings to see so much potential go to wasting their lives like this" Sbu said. 

However, some people on social media questioned whether the three men were actually high on nyaope and if the substance was a common drug in other parts of the world. 

Some felt that the drug problem was more than just about race, after DJ Sbu said "our black brothers and sisters".
