Mandy Kiss Appointed Ambassador for Lagos Anti-Drug Campaign

Social media influencer Ayomiposi Oluwadahunsi, widely known as Mandy Kiss, has been unveiled as a brand ambassador for the Lagos State Kick Against Drug and Substance Abuse initiative (LASKADA).

The announcement was made on Tuesday by the Lagos State Commissioner for Youth and Social Development, Mr. Mobolaji Ogunlende, during an event organized by the campaign.

“We’re here with Mandy Kiss, and she has agreed to become one of our LASKADA brand ambassadors, Lagos State Kicks Against Drug Abuse,” Ogunlende said in a video of the unveiling that has since gone viral.

The Commissioner described drug abuse as a “pandemic” affecting communities across the state, emphasizing the importance of partnerships between government and influencers with wide public reach.

“Drugs are a pandemic that is hitting our streets, our society, and our communities,” he said. “The government cannot fight it alone. We must work in collaboration with those that can reach as many people as possible, and we know Mandy Kiss has a large followership — 402,000. With the powers conferred on me, I make her one of our brand ambassadors. So, say no to drugs. Say what? Say no to drugs.”

The appointment comes just weeks after Mandy Kiss stirred controversy with a viral social media post in which she claimed she intended to attempt a marathon sex act with 100 men in a single day — a claim she later dismissed as a joke. The Guinness World Records (GWR) also issued a statement distancing itself from the post, clarifying that sexual activity is not recognized as a record category.

Defending the appointment, Ogunlende maintained that Mandy Kiss’s wide influence could help drive anti-drug awareness across Lagos communities.

“Everybody has a past, nobody’s perfect,” he said. “But as a brand ambassador to Lagos State Kicks Against Drug Abuse, we hope Mandy Kiss will be able to reach the nooks and crannies of Lagos to assist us in fighting this pandemic.”
