Summary (AI generated)

You know, Lung, gumbo cancers are the leading cause of cancer deaths in countries like the UK, for instance. However, in Nigeria, cancers such as breast cancer, cervical cancer, and other infectious diseases related to cancer, like hepatitis and liver cancer, are on the rise. On the other hand, prostate cancer is a greatly neglected cancer in terms of awareness and support. Many men have been dying from prostate cancer, yet their plight remains unnoticed. The unanswered questions that persist are why men seldom seek diagnosis and fail to take proper care of themselves. It seems that men are generally disinterested in cancer.
