ISSUP Nigeria

ISSUP Nigeria recently paid a courtesy visit to the NIGCOMSAT Limited Ground Control Station in Abuja.

The ISSUP delegation, led by its President, Dr. Olajumoke Koyejo, was warmly received by the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of NIGCOMSAT Limited, Jane Egerton-Idehen.

The engagement provided a valuable platform to explore how technology-driven communication solutions can support ISSUP’s outreach, education, and community-focused initiatives, particularly in reaching young people and underserved or hard-to-reach communities.

ISSUP Nigeria has paid a courtesy visit to the Executive Secretary of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), High Chief Dr. Anthony Okechukwu Ojukwu, SAN, as part of efforts to strengthen collaboration on rights-based approaches to substance use prevention, treatment, and recovery in Nigeria.

ISSUP Nigeria marked a major milestone with a leadership transition ceremony that combined the inauguration of new executive officers with a warm send-off for the outgoing team. The moment signalled continuity, renewal, and the beginning of a fresh chapter for the National Chapter in Nigeria.

ISSUP Nigeria joined the global community on June 26 to commemorate the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, under the theme: “The Evidence is Clear: Invest in Prevention.”

Across the country, members of ISSUP Nigeria were actively involved in a range of activities, reaching young people in schools, engaging policymakers, raising awareness in local communities, and sharing prevention messages through media and online platforms.
