The Ministry of Health’s alleged partnership with BAT is a clear violation of Article 5.3 of the WHO FCTC and Kenya’s Tobacco Control Act. Health policy is not for sale! #PSMuthoniExplainBATDeal

Yes! We agree that Kenya reaffirmed its commitment to public health when it signed the WHO FCTC and domesticated it through the Tobacco Control Act (2007). Any engagement with the tobacco industry must uphold this commitment. Transparency matters. #PSMuthoniExplainBATDeal

Kenya made a commitment to its people - when it signed the WHO FCTC which was domesticated through the Tobacco Control Act 2007. This partnership with BAT betrays Kenyans #PSMuthoniExplainBATDeal

Health equals wealth while tobacco equals poverty.
Big Tobacco is targeting our children with colorful packaging, flavored vapes and influencer marketing. But behind the glitter lies addiction and disease and financial loss. #TobaccoExposed

Tobacco costs Kenya more than it gives. While a few profit from sales, our economy bleeds from healthcare costs, lost lives, and reduced productivity. It's time to prioritize health over profits. #KenyaHealth

If British American Tobacco is underreporting revenue, what else are they hiding? Manipulating profits while millions suffer from tobacco-related diseases is unacceptable. Transparency and accountability now. #WNTD2025KE

Tobacco and nicotine use among young people is rising . Don’t be fooled by the fancy designs, share the truth about nicotine pouches and e-cigs with your peers. We need strong enforcement and education to protect Kenya’s future. @NACADAKenya

“Smoke-free” isn’t harm-free. The tobacco industry is just rebranding addiction. Nicotine pouches and e-cigarettes still hook, harm, and hurt.They fuel addiction and bring health and social risks. Let’s act before more lives go up in smoke! #WNTD2025KE
