As the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime and the MTN Nigeria Foundation partner on the national survey on substance use in Nigeria, the Vice President, Senator @KashimSM, has pledged the commitment of the Federal Government to take ownership and leadership of the initiative.
According to the Vice President, the Federal Government is involved in the initiative, which he said is essential to Nigeria’s survival as a nation.
The Vice President stated this at the Presidential Villa on Wednesday during the signing of the letter of acceptance for cooperation on the National Substance Use Survey in Nigeria between the UNODC and MTN Nigeria Foundation.
Speaking on the Federal Government’s expectations, Senator @KashimSM said, “We expect the findings to land as policy inputs, not as documents, and we expect a full and final report no later than the first quarter of next year.”
Stressing the commitment of the Federal Government, the VP said, “I want to be clear that the Office of the Vice President’s role is not ceremonial. We are in this for the outcome because the survey report will provide relevant authorities with granular local government data required to design and implement critical interventions.”
Young people are not just beneficiaries of mental health policies, they are leaders and partners in shaping solutions.

Today, I didn’t just celebrate love—I made history.
On her birthday, I married my best friend, my answered prayer, my forever ❤️
And to make it even more special, I created my very first song for her: “From Kusuv to Mbawuar.” 🎶

Honored to meet the Vice President of Nigeria 🇳🇬 yesterday, accompanied by a delegation from our UN Country Team @UN_Nigeria 🇺🇳. We are committed to supporting the Government in accelerating progress for youth and women across the country 💪🏽✨
As a Barrister and Solicitor of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, with 37 years at the Bar, I was honoured to attend the Opening Ceremony of the 2026 Annual Conference of the Nigerian Bar Association Section on Legal Practice @NBA_SLP in Lagos, a convening which advances legal practice and strengthens justice administration in Nigeria.
Under the forward-looking theme, Evolving Trends: Nigerian Legal Practice, Global Perspectives, the conference brings together leading voices from the Bar, the Bench, government, academia, and industry, reflecting a collective responsibility to shape a legal profession that is responsive to national priorities and aligned with global standards.
I was pleased to join distinguished leaders, including the Chair of the NBA Section on Legal Practice, Folashade Alli SAN, and to hear the keynote address delivered by H.E. Dr Olufemi Elias, Judge ad hoc at the International Court of Justice, alongside the presence of the Chief Justice of Nigeria, Hon. Justice Kudirat Kekere-Ekun, who delivered special remarks and formally opened the conference, and whose leadership continues to guide the administration of justice at the highest level.
In Lagos, a dynamic legal and commercial hub, and as the legal landscape undergoes transformation driven by technological innovation and shifting expectations, the convening sets an influential tone for dialogue, partnership, and reform, highlighting the imperative for practitioners to embrace modernisation, deepen professional excellence, and engage meaningfully with international frameworks while safeguarding the integrity of our legal systems.
The conference also marked the launch of the NBA-SLP National Law Firm Directory 2026, the official directory of law firms in Nigeria, enhancing transparency, visibility, and professional connectivity across the sector.
I commend the Nigerian Bar Association Section on Legal Practice for convening such a consequential forum, and for its continued leadership in fostering professional development, inclusivity, and distinction across the legal community.
