The Nigeria Tobacco Control Alliance (NTCA) has formally requested that the National Assembly recall the National Tobacco Control Act (Amendment) Bill 2025. The organization is advocating for a transparent, public health-led review of the legislation before it is submitted for presidential assent.
This opposition centers on concerns regarding proposed changes to advertising restrictions within the tobacco industry. By calling for a legislative recall, the alliance seeks to ensure that public health priorities remain central to the regulatory framework governing tobacco products in Nigeria.
