9 February 2017

As Cameroon commemorates the 2017 edition of the National Youth Day, a cross section of the youth in Ngoumou, Mefou & Akono Division of the Centre Region of Cameroon were on Thursday 9th February, 2017, exposed to C3T posters showing graphic images of the consequences of tobacco consumption.

This was in an exposition event organized at the premise of the Ngoumou Municipal Council. The event brought together youths of different institutions around Ngoumou who showcased their skills in cookery and handicraft.

The high point of the event was the arrival of the Senior Divisional Officer of the Mefou and Akono Division Mr. Embe David. Accompanied by his first assistant, the SDO had a guided tour of the stands present, including C3T Graphic Health Warning posters.

The administrative officials were also sensitized on the need to stop all forms of tobacco advertising, promotion and sponsorship around schools in the area, as well as the need adopt regulations for a smoke free environment.
