World Cancer Day!
As we observe the World Cancer Day, we must show commitment– whether big or small– to create a cancer free society at state, federal and global levels. This year's theme: 'I am and I will' was rightly chosen and has suited the contemporary. 4th February every year remind us of the significant role we can all play in supporting this global campaign against the deadliest disease.
We must encourage the creation of adequate awareness to our people to reduce the impact of the disease on them and the society. This should be done regularly, especially for women, who mostly suffer from breast cancer, to prevent the unaffected ones among them and encourage those with the disease to not relent in seeking cure for the disease. Authorities should equally provide vaccine and make it free and available at our hospitals in both rural and urban areas for our young girls and women to easily access it.
Let's all get involved in lessening the impact of this disease.
