The highlight of the walk was encouraging people to attend the FREE SCREENING sessions which will be held every Friday from the 9^th of October at Optimal Cancer Care Foundation, 118 Bode Thomas road, Surulere.

According to Tewa Onasanya, the Founder of Exquisite Magazine and EMAC walk … “this year we have been able to capture more people, especially the young sexually active women who are also at the risk of cervical cancer, a form of cancer that is 100% preventable and one of the few cancers that presents a pre-cancer stage. We appreciate everyone that came out for the walk to raise more awareness and support our free screening campaign AND also we ask that all women join us for this free screening even if you did not attend the walk.”
