Actor and politician, Desmond Elliot and a Non-Governmental Organization BWS have called for the inclusion of human papilionia Virus Vaccination awareness campaign in the already existing cancer control programme of Lagos State Ministry of Health. This they say will bring awareness to Nigerians especially women on the need to protect themselves against cancer.
Elliot also said the HPV Vaccine cost about a hundred Dollars (N30,000) per person which is expensive, so government should include it in the cancer control programme and also make it readily available. This call wasmade during the 2016 Cancer Day Celebration
