Today, June 16, @CAPPAfrica had the honour of presenting a plaque of recognition to Hon. High Chief Bosun Osaloni, Chairman of Ado Local Government, for his bold and visionary move to declare Ado Ekiti a smoke-free city during the 2025 World No Tobacco Day. We engaged with the Chairman and his high-powered team, including the Vice Chairperson, Heads of Departments, and key local officials, on the next steps toward institutionalising this declaration into a binding local edict or bylaw. Ado Ekiti is taking bold steps, and @CAPPAfrica is proud to stand with them! #SmokeFreeEkiti

Behind every flashy tobacco and nicotine product lies a deliberate strategy - to attract users, get them hooked, and make money from their addiction. It’s time to unmask the truth! #WNTD2025KE #UnmaskTheAppeal

🚫 Tobacco ads target youth and keep people hooked. Banning tobacco advertising, promotion, and sponsorship is a powerful step to protect young people and reduce tobacco use. Guidelines for implementation of Article 13: Tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship: 🔗fctc.who.int/resources/publ… #FCTCSavesLives #WNTD2025

The next wave of tobacco addiction isn’t an accident- it’s engineered by Big Tobacco. Attractive Flavors. Colorful packaging. Slick ads. Celebrities on social media. These are calculated moves by an industry that profits from addiction. This #WorldNoTobaccoDay, we say: no more. Unmask the Appeal. #TobaccoExposed.
