Amb. Kyogire reiterated that the High Commission stands in solidarity with this initiative in response to an appeal by the Foreign Affairs Minister, Gen Jeje Odongo to have Ugandans abroad mobilised to take part in the run.
She drew the Ugandans in diaspora's attention to the severity of cancer in its final stages and encouraged them to go for periodic medical examinations owing to the fact that cancer can be detected, treated and managed before it advances to its deadly stages.
