The Kenya Defense Forces (KDF) has raised alarm over the usage of illegal drugs and substances by young people in Garissa who turned up for the KDF recruitment drive for 2025.
The recruitment exercises for the Garissa Township constituency conducted at the Police Training Centre (PTC) grounds in Garissa town attracted at least 250 hopeful recruits.
Garissa has faced significant challenges related to drug and substance abuse, with the menace only getting worse in recent years despite the efforts by religious leaders, the National government administrative officers, and multi-agency teams to address the drug abuse.
