We must lobby our leaders, governments, private sector and non-government organisations to
take the necessary action so that we can help our people live healthy and productive lives.
There is also need for us to find ways in which our people will adopt healthy lifestyles
through physical exercise and proper diet as a way of combating this menace.
We need Africa to go back to her roots and start eating more traditional foodstuffs. We need
to stop consumption of highly processed foods especially among the youth.
We all know that local problems require local solutions which is why we are gathered here to
bring together our collective ideas in a quest to stop the rampant death of our people to
the scourge of cancer.
Once again, as chairperson of this forum, I look forward to working with you all. I want to assure
you of my commitment and support to fight cervical, breast and prostate cancer across Africa.
I wish you fruitful deliberations and a successful conference.
Thank you.
