In his remarks Chief Medical Director of the Maiduguri Teaching Hospital, Professor Ahmed Ahidjo, noted that the cost of managing cancer is very expensive, and that prevention is the best approach. 


He praised the book for providing education and enlightenment, and hoped that it would help reduce the prevalence of cervical cancer in northern Nigeria.
