Recently,
‘Tahidi High School’, a popular program
aired on citizen T V. had something spectacular for viewers who watched it
keenly. Airing a program of students smoking in the school compound, they are
found, punished and later shown the pictures on the effects of tobacco. The students looked shocked, that they were
putting their lives at risk, by engaging in smoking.
It
is worth noting that pictures are powerful tools of communication. They
motivate behavioral change and communicate directly to the smokers. They reinforce
the message.

anti-tobacco activities threatened to disrupt a viable and profitable cash crop
that supports the live hoods of thousands of Kenyans.
