Tobacco Control
Nigeria is a policy change and public health campaign project using Social
Media to advance tobacco control and support the passage of a comprehensive
Tobacco Control (TC) law compliant with the World Health Organization’s
Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.
TobaccoCtrl
kicked off its social media campaign officially in August with the launch of
their website and Tobacco Dodge
Game app. The group also held crowd spellbound with its
message on the streets of Ajegunle in Lagos with the use of Dance and Music
performance from Dathreat dance group and Vocal Slender.
The launch activities continued with quiz, competitions and giveaways on
twitter and Facebook.

Meanwhile, Nollywood’s finest diva Stella Damasus and
Motivational Speaker Fela Durotoye have signed up as Tobacco Control Celebrity
Cause Champions. This development is part of implementing a social media-driven
campaign on Tobacco Control. The policy change and public health campaign
project (Tobaccoctrl) is aimed at sensitizing and informing the general public
on Tobacco Control issues with the ultimate goal of advocating for the use of
domestic laws to stringently regulate the use, distribution and promotion of
tobacco products in Nigeria.
