Putting People First in the Fight Against Drugs. 🧠❤️

Kenya is on the ground at the #CND69 in Vienna, amplifying Africa's voice for a people-centered approach.

Today, Ms. Beverly Opwora, Principal Administrative Secretary, @InteriorKE delivered a powerful statement at the African Union side event: "People Centered: Strengthening Public Health and Security in the New African Union Strategy."

🇰🇪 Kenya’s Message to the World:
As we craft the new AU Strategy (2026-2030), we cannot ignore the shifting tides of the global drug problem. We are seeing:
⚠️ A surge in demand.
💊 The rise of synthetic monsters like Fentanyl.
🌐 Dark online marketplaces exploiting technology.
👨👩👧👦 The stigma faced by users, especially women and children.

"We must focus on the people. The blunt consequence of this problem is felt most profoundly by the user, their friends, their family, and the community." - Ms. Opwora.
Kenya remains committed to building a future rooted in prevention, rehabilitation, and dignity for all.

The renewed fight against drugs & alcohol must be won on two fronts: cutting supply and reducing demand.

Supply suppression works best when paired with accessible, quality treatment for those struggling.

[NACADA Kenya @NACADAKenya]

Passenger safety begins with a choice—long before the key turns. 🔑

Make the right one at the stage, station, or parking lot.

Drive clean.
Drive sober.
Drive responsibly.

The journey matters, but the decision starts here.
#SoberChoice #DriveClean

[NACADA Kenya @NACADAKenya]

Stress is not a license for intoxication. 🚫

This holiday season, remember: alcohol and drugs amplify stress on the road. They fuel aggression, shatter concentration, and are a direct cause of crashes.

Your journey's safety is in your hands. Choose calmness. Choose alertness. Choose life.

#StaySober #HolidaySafety

[NACADA Kenya @NACADAKenya]

Cheers to you, the drivers choosing responsibility! 🎉

This season, we celebrate YOU, our crucial partners in safety. Your commitment to sober driving safeguards families and fuels a responsible transport culture.

Let every trip be a testimony. Thank you for protecting the nation, one journey at a time.
#FestiveDriving #SafeHolidays #RoadSafetyKE

[NACADA Kenya @NACADAKenya]

✅ CHOOSE: Sober driver, roadworthy vehicle, reputable service.
❌ REJECT: Rush, overload, suspicious behaviour.

Think your safety starts when the vehicle moves? Think again.

Passenger safety begins long before the journey starts.

The power is in YOUR hands at the stage, station, or parking lot.

Look. Assess. Choose wisely.

Make the right choice — drive clean, drive sober, drive responsibly.

Retweet to spread the word. #StageSafety #PassengerSafetyKE
