@DrBenido @Roche @WHOAFRO @AmericanCancer Big Thank you to @katai47 for being the initiatior, the negotiator and for initiating the implementation of the Grant given to @WHOAFRO by @Roche to support African Member states. The Grant will surely be a positive change maker at country level addressing women #Cancers.

Honored to receive the @hfn_nigeria Pioneer Supporter Award! As the organization marks its 10th anniversary, I am reminded of our journey to making the Cancer Health Fund a reality. Health financing is huge issue for Nigerians, with 70% paying out-of-pocket for care, and only 4% covered by insurance. Public-Private collaboration is key to breaking the barrier and unlocking our full potential. My appreciation and continued support goes to both the outgoing and incoming Presidents- @DrPamelaajayi and @NjideN

The power social media in raising cancer awareness is huge. Head wraps are a common accessory among women, Africa. Symbol of pride and heritage for many. ZCS has used this to stand with women on cancer treatment and raise awareness. Dukutober! who.int/news-room/feat…

No woman should die of cervical cancer—it's the type of cancer we can eliminate by expanding access to vaccination, screening & treatment. As we mark 4 years since the launch of the global movement to eliminate cervical cancer, we must turn commitments into lifesaving actions.
