Mukhtasar Malcolm Alkali: I will be attending the WCC2024 to represent Medicaid Cancer Foundation
Mukhtasar Malcolm Alkali, Cancer Advocate at Medicaid Cancer Foundation, shared a post on X:
”I am pleased to announce that I will be attending the World Cancer Congress 2024 in Geneva, Switzerland, organised by Union for International Cancer Control to represent my organisation, Medicaid Cancer Foundation.
At the WCC2024, I will be presenting a paper titled ‘Enhancing Cervical Cancer Secondary Prevention in Kebbi State: HPV Self-Sample Collection Method.’ This work reflects Medicaid Cancer Foundation’s commitment to improving access to cervical cancer screening and prevention for women in underserved communities. The HPV self-sampling method is a critical step forward in making early detection more accessible, and I look forward to sharing insights from our experience in Kebbi State.
I anticipate engaging with global leaders, sharing valuable insights, and contributing to the global efforts in advancing cancer control.”

”I’m so so proud of you Mukhtasar. Mentoring your passion, skills and ambition an honour. You represent a generation that has so much potential, yet is easily misunderstood. Well done! The sky is your limit!”
