#CervicalCancer is the only cancer a woman can prevent because it is easy and affordable to treat if discovered early.
HPV vaccination is cervical cancer prevention.

Prof Anyang' Ngong'o,had cancer, prostrate cancer but he no longer has it,he is a cancer survivor.
The good thing is that he detected the cancer early during a routine check up.
After his diagnosis in 2010, he underwent successful specialized treatment (Hormone Therapy and Intensity-Modulated Radiation Therapy) in the United States in early 2011. Since then, he has been in remission.
When he was diagnosed,he was the minister for Medical Services,he used his personal experience to push for a better cancer research centre.He also helped found Africa Cancer Foundation,Along with his wife,to promote awareness and better treatment facilities.
Serving as a Kisumu Governor,he has ensured better medical services in Kisumu and in 2023, unlike Politicians who go abroad for medical services,he underwent spinal surgery at Jaramongi Odinga Odinga Teaching and Referral Hospital in 2023
One of the few Good Leaders we have.

Anal cancer may not be widely talked about, but awareness can save lives. During this Awareness Month, we encourage everyone to learn the signs, understand the risks, and seek medical advice when something doesn’t feel right.
Early detection and timely treatment greatly improve outcomes. Paying attention to changes in your body and going for regular health check-ups can make a difference.
Let’s break the silence around anal cancer and support open conversations about prevention, screening, and early care. Together, we can reduce stigma and promote healthier communities.

Women are the backbone of Africa’s families and communities. Yet breast cancer is rising, with an estimated 400,000 cases expected by 2045. Too many women are diagnosed too late—not because breast cancer is untreatable, but because access to timely care is unequal.

The result: families lose mothers and communities lose stability.
This International Women’s Day, the #AfricaBreastCancerCouncil calls for action on a preventable injustice—late diagnosis and delayed treatment.
