Stakeholders have canvassed for alternatives to cigarettes as one of the Tobacco Harm Reduction (THR) strategies towards achieving a smoke-free Nigeria. This is as a result of the social-economic impact and health risks associated with tobacco smoking.
The stakeholders, which include public health experts, researchers, academics, non-governmental organisations, students, and the media, made this call at a roundtable event tagged, “Achieving a Smoke-Free Nigeria: Learning from Sweden”, organised by ValueFronteira Limited, which held in Ikeja, Lagos State on December 21st, 2023.
