Former First Lady of Kebbi State and Founder of Medicaid Cancer Foundation, Dr. Zainab Bagudu has urged State Governors, State House Assembly members and development partners to be prudent in the use of funds meant for cancer treatment.
She said with early release of funds meant for the fight against as well as its treatment, this gesture would achieve zero tolerance of the deadliest disease called cancer in the entire African continent.
Bagudu, who made the call yesterday, during the 11th Medicaid Cancer Awareness Walk in Abuja, to raise awareness about the disease, said cancer survivors have a place as research has proven that many are responding to treatments.
