The Drug Free Arewa movement is a movement of young people and civil society groups within 19 Northern States and the F.C.T, as the key outcomes of the 2nd Annual Arewa Youth Leadership Summit held on 20TH January 2018 at the Nigeria Air Force Conference Center, Kado - Abuja that had the participation of 185 youths and stakeholders from across the region organized by TRIUMPHANT YOUTH FOUNDATION (TYF). Understanding that drugs/substance abuse are robbing our youths of their future in the North, as proven that every hour a teenager experiments with illicit drugs for the first time. However, helping young people live life without drugs is Triumphant Youth Foundation (TYF) and partners coordinating the largest non-governmental drug/substance abuse education and prevention in Northern Nigeria.

Indeed this is the key to a real and sustainable regional recovery, as top level Government Officials, Religious and Traditional leaders, Students, Health Workers, Politicians, CSO’s, Youth Based Organisations and Law Enforcement Agencies join us in this crusade to strengthen and enable cooperation and implement valuable resolutions that will bring positive growth and holistic fight against drug abuse in the Northern region.
