This World Cancer Day, we reflect on the reality: 72,000 Nigerians still lose their lives because f late detection and lack of optimal care

But there is hope.

Global evidence shows that up to one-third of cancers are preventable and many more are curable when detected early.

For some cancers, like cervical cancer, elimination is possible through coordinated action: vaccination, screening, early treatment, and stronger health systems.

The fight against cancer will not be won by a single intervention or a single voice.

It will be won by people-centred policies, strong primary healthcare, sustained advocacy, and collective action.

Together, Nigeria can win this fight against cancer and build a nation free from premature deaths caused by this disease.
Together, Nigeria can win this fight.
