National Cancer Institute of Kenya CEO, Dr. Elias Melly, highlights a distinction in risk factors for our youngest population:

"Cancer causation is a long process. Newborn children are not exposed to cancer risk factors except one: hereditary, which is genetic predisposition."

This Jamhuri Day, we celebrate a nation built on resilience, unity, and the unwavering spirit of its people.
As we honour the journey that brought us freedom, we also renew our commitment to safeguarding the health and wellbeing of every Kenyan.

Cancer continues to affect families and communities across our nation, but together, we have the power to change the story.
Today, we reaffirm our dedication to raising awareness, promoting early detection, and strengthening access to quality cancer care for all.

The power to shape a brighter, healthier future lies within us, embracing regular screening, adopting healthier lifestyles, supporting those in treatment, and standing with survivors defines the true meaning of independence.

Let this day remind us that a healthier Kenya is a stronger Kenya.

Together, let’s champion early detection, build healthier communities, and inspire hope for every Kenyan affected by cancer.

What we eat every day quietly shapes our health in ways we often don’t notice. Good nutrition gives our bodies the strength they need to protect us, heal us, and keep us going. A colourful plate filled with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and plenty of water helps lower the risk of certain cancers by supporting a stronger immune system, reducing harmful inflammation, and helping us maintain a healthy weight.

Choosing nourishing foods is an act of self-care. It’s the small, everyday decisions — drinking more water, adding an extra serving of vegetables, exercising ,choosing a fresh snack over a processed one — that make a real difference.
Your wellness journey starts with simple choices. With every meal, you give your body the chance to thrive.
