Over 4000 breast cancer cases recorded in Ghana every year

Ghana News, Health & Wellbeing
Over 4,000 breast cancer cases are recorded in Ghana every year. Limited awareness of the disease, inadequate screening and treatment centres have been some of the factors driving the increase in infections.

Ghana News
The National Peace Council (NPC) is closely monitoring the political discourse ahead of the December 7 polls and will not hesitate to call out political parties and politicians who cross the red line by threatening violence, the National Chairman of the Council, Rev. Dr Ernest Adu-Gyamfi, has said. He said though it was a normal practice for political actors to be optimistic about winning elections, it was unacceptable for them to resort to threats of violence to achieve electoral results. “There is nothing wrong when politicians make statements that they are optimistic of winning an election because no one goes to an election and hopes to lose. If they make such comments, that is okay as long as they do not cross the red line by threatening to use the police, the military or other m...
