The tobacco industry is not a neutral stakeholder in public health, they are profit-driven actors trying to mislead policy processes. #ProtectYouthShishaBanKE #WANAWADANGANYA

💪🏾🧠 STRONG MEN MAKE HEALTHY CHOICES.

We believe strength is not about how much you can drink or what substances you can handle.

True strength is:
✅ Protecting your mental clarity
✅ Guarding your relationships
✅ Building your career
✅ Securing your future
Staying away from drugs and alcohol is not weakness. It is wisdom.

🧠💪 We don’t hide. We heal.

Men’s Health Month = Our reminder that seeking help is strength.

We speak up. We get support. We live drug-free. 🚫
Let’s end the silence. Let’s save lives.

🧠💪 Learning. Collaborating. Recovering.

We hosted @reachout_ke a leading Community-Based Organization (CBO) in substance use prevention & rehabilitation – for a learning mission.

Led by Director @twayeebahmed they were briefed on NACADA’s twin pillars of supply + demand reduction, our mandate, legal tenets, and recovery programs.

🤝 Together, we strengthen Kenya’s response to substance use dependence.

Street drugs are rarely what people think they are! Most cocaine users don’t know they may also be snorting levamisole — a veterinary dewormer linked to immune collapse and internal bleeding. Get to know the facts

Social media exposure is increasing nicotine normalization among youth. Challenge misleading content online and speak up when you see nicotine products being promoted. #UnmaskTheAppealKE

Mental wellness + drug prevention = two sides of the same coin.

Communities that invest in:
✅ Awareness
✅ Mentorship
✅ Positive recreation

Help young people build resilience and avoid risky behaviours.

Strong communities raise strong youth.

🚫🍷 ALL-GOVERNMENT APPROACH IN ACTION. NAIROBI NORTH STEPS UP.

To effectively address the alcohol and drug abuse problem, we need to employ the All-Government approach.

Today, our Nairobi County office held a successful Nairobi North Sub-Regional multi-agency committee meeting chaired by County Commissioner Mr. Simon Osumba.

Key strategies agreed:

✅ Close all unlicensed alcohol outlets
✅ Crack down on counterfeit & uncustomed alcoholic drinks
✅ Enhance operations against illicit brews
The County Chief Officer (Trade) committed to working closely with National Government Administration officers.
Other agencies: @KRACorporate , @ACA_Kenya County Liquor Board Directorate, all Sub-Regional security committee members & Deputy County Commissioners.

United we act.

🚀 From Compliance to Real Impact – NACADA is shifting the paradigm!

At the 3rd Annual Regulatory Authorities & Agencies (RAAs) Conference 2026 in Kitui County, our CEO, @omerikwa, delivered a powerful presentation titled “From Compliance to Impact.”

🎯 His key message?
Moving beyond box-ticking regulations to measuring real-world outcomes of our programmes. How do we know if policies are truly saving lives? That’s the new benchmark.

💡 Great regulation isn’t just about rules – it’s about results.
