Abstract

This study was a qualitative research conducted at a faith based private university in Nigeria with zero
tolerance for drugs. Participants were selected by purposive sampling. There were 20 student participants who
were involved with substance abuse. The students were referred to the Department of Student Support Services
at the university either through the disciplinary committee or self-referral. There were also 9 parent participants
who had wards who were involved with substance abuse. There were 10 participants from the university’s
Administration and Disciplinary Committee (ADC). The word data was collected through Narrative inquiry,
structured interviews and focus group discussions. The three categories of participants and multiple sources of
data allowed for triangulation that enhanced the validity of the data.The results showed that religion informed the type of drugs used by the students and choice of preffered treatment intervention
