The Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare, Dr Iziaq Salako, said this in Abeokuta, at a workshop organised by the National Nuclear Medicine Technical Working Group on the development of National Nuclear Medicine Guidelines/Policy.
The minister noted that the increasing burden of cancer in the country needed solutions and all management possibilities to tackle the disease.
He said the federal government remains concerned about the growing cancer burden, with 60 to 70 per cent of Nigerians personally knowing someone affected by the disease.
