Nigeria’s First Lady, Senator Oluremi Tinubu,
has called on women to prioritise their health through early detection and
regular screening as the nation joins the rest of the world to mark Breast
Cancer Awareness Month 2025.
In a statement issued on Monday, Mrs Tinubu emphasised
that early detection remains crucial in saving lives, urging women to
engage in regular self-examinations and medical checkups.
“As women, mothers, sisters, and daughters, our health
must remain a priority. Early detection saves lives. Regular self-examination
and timely medical screening are key in the fight against breast cancer,” she
said.
The First Lady also encouraged Nigerians to use the
month to support survivors, raise public awareness, and promote
proactive health habits.
“Let us work together to stay healthy. Happy Breast
Cancer Awareness Month 2025,” she added.
October is globally recognised as Breast Cancer
Awareness Month, aimed at promoting education, early detection, and support
for those affected by the disease.
