She told newsmen that the gesture was part of activities to mark the 2018 International Women’s Day by the Isabella Ayuk Foundation.
According to her, the Foundation, which is her humanitarian initiative, empowers and provides medical assistance to less privileged and rural women.
“Regular screening will help reduce cancer-related burdens and its consequent death rate in our society, and that is what we have decided to do for the women in this community.
Ayuk said the forum also aimed to sensitize women of reproductive age on the need to go for periodic cervical cancer checks, whether they felt sick or not.
Over 100 women attended the free cervical cancer screening which held at the Primary Health Care Centre in Ushafa.
The participants received free cervical cancer screening and vaccination, as well as blood pressure and sugar level tests. See Photos below…
