It's not just content. It's an invitation. 🍷 When a public figure glamorizes alcohol online, they're not just posting, they're influencing. And that influence puts our youth at risk. The new National Policy is a crucial step: influencers should NOT be paid to promote drinks.

Influencers normalize. Young people emulate. We can't wonder why campuses have problems when alcohol is sold as a must-have lifestyle. It's time for policy change. Let's demand safer spaces by stopping the glamorization. #NotALifestyle #PolicyChange #SaferCampuses

"I did it because everyone online made it look normal." This honest confession from a university student highlights a pervasive issue. The constant glow of influencer promotions doesn't just advertise a product; it silently shapes norms and creates immense pressure on young

Kenya’s culture is rich, it doesn’t need alcohol to be cool. Influencers can celebrate food, music and community without normalising drinks that put youth at risk

46% of our university students have tried a substance. 26.6% are still using. This isn't just a statistic. It's a direct link to the mental health crisis and suicide among our youth. We must act NOW. Prevention, support, and open conversations can break the chain. Let's protect
