In a bold stride toward women’s health empowerment, My Body My Asset Cancer Foundation, in collaboration with Tonia Bruised But Not Broken Foundation, has launched a free cervical cancer screening program that has already surpassed expectations. Initially designed to reach 500 women, the initiative has recorded an impressive turnout of nearly 1,000 participants during its’ flag-off campaign, on November 3rd, 2025, at the foundation’s headquarters in Shasha, Lagos. The three-month project, which runs until January 30th, 2026, underscores a growing awareness among women about the importance of early detection and preventive health care.
The initiative offers weekly screening sessions for women from all walks of life, focusing particularly on vulnerable groups who often lack access to adequate medical attention. Participants are attended to in small batches to ensure a personalized, reassuring experience.
The My Body My Asset Cancer foundation’s leadership brings authenticity and empathy to the campaign, with the president, Ambassador Franca Eze (PhD), drawing from her personal journey as a cancer survivor to inspire hope and confidence among participants. Her professional expertise in healthcare adds depth to the process, ensuring accuracy and quality throughout the screening.
Beyond the medical aspect, the collaboration represents a unifying movement for women’s well-being. The Tonia Bruised But Not Broken Foundation, under the direction of Anthonia Ojenagbon, infused the project with a spirit of compassion and community advocacy. The campaign’s success has been strengthened by partnerships with groups like the Child Protection Network (CPN) and other women’s rights advocates, amplifying outreach to women who might otherwise have been overlooked. Plans for a commemorative event in January aim to honor women lost to cervical cancer while keeping the conversation about prevention alive.
With growing participation and continued enthusiasm, the screening initiative is shaping into a model for grassroots health empowerment. It is more than a medical campaig. It is a statement about resilience, access and the transformative power of collaboration. By extending screening opportunities, promoting awareness and encouraging vaccination among sexually active women, both foundations are redefining what community-centered healthcare can achieve in Nigeria’s evolving health landscape.
Speaking with some of the beneficiaries at the event, the Center Manager of Mirable Center Lagos, who is also a member of the Child Protection Network, Joy Shokoya, also commended the coordinators of both NGOs for their initiative, especially in caring for those who are caregivers and support systems in their various work groups.
Another beneficiary, the State Coordinator of the Child Protection Network and Bimbo Odukoya’s Women’s Rights Advocacy, Ronke Oyelakin, hailed the program for their awareness to women to ensure that they give more concern to women’s health.
