International Letter Campaigns for Tobacco Control
Petition: Categorize Tobacco as a 'Drug' for Purposes of Regulation
Target: National Agency for Food Drug Administration & Control (NAFDAC), Nigeria
Context:
NAFDAC has recorded successes in tackling the scourge of adultrated and fake drugs in the Nigerian market. NAFDAC has also succeeded in regulating the availability and dispensation of drugs in Nigeria. NAFDAC should now extend its successes and expertise to regulate the consumption of 'nicotine' ( a major component of cigarettes). By officially categorizing tobacco as a 'drug', its sale, consumption and marketing would be curtailed and monitored.
