The National Authority for the Campaign Against Alcohol and Drug Abuse (NACADA) has ordered the immediate closure of the Ahadi Rehabilitation Centre in Githunguri, Kiambu County, following a damning inspection that uncovered widespread health and safety violations.

An impromptu inspection conducted earlier this week by NACADA's Compliance and Enforcement team revealed appalling conditions at the facility.

Among the key issues cited were unhygienic food preparation areas, inadequate medical care, and neglected living quarters.

Inspectors found that several residents were visibly ill and had not received any professional treatment.
