Tribute to Professor Josbert Thomas Kofi Duncan*

St. Cyril Cancer Treatment Foundation and Oak Cancer Specialist Hospitals join family, friends, colleagues, and the academic and medical communities across Africa in mourning the passing of Professor Josbert Thomas Kofi Duncan, a distinguished oncologist, pioneering scholar, mentor, and compassionate leader whose life was devoted to advancing medicine, education, and the service of humanity.

Professor Duncan was a trailblazer in cancer care in West Africa and one of the earliest oncologists and radiotherapists in the region. Over the course of a remarkable career spanning several decades, he made extraordinary contributions to oncology, medical education, and the development of cancer treatment services in Nigeria and beyond. He was among the first specialists in radiotherapy and cancer management in West Africa and became a Fellow of the Royal College of Radiologists in England in 1961, a distinction that placed him among the pioneering generation of African cancer specialists.

Professor Duncan also played a historic role in strengthening cancer treatment infrastructure in Nigeria. He was instrumental in bringing one of the first radiotherapy machines to the Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH), a milestone that significantly expanded the country’s capacity to treat cancer patients at a time when such services were extremely limited. Through his work as a Professor of Oncology, he cared for countless patients while helping to train and mentor generations of doctors and specialists who continue to shape cancer care across the region.

🌍 World NGO Day

At St. Cyril Cancer Treatment Foundation, our mission has always been clear: to bridge gaps in cancer care, expand access to support, and stand beside individuals and families navigating one of life’s most difficult journeys.

Every outreach, every partnership, every conversation is guided by one belief, that quality care and compassion should never be a privilege, but a possibility for all.

Today, on World NGO Day, we celebrate collaboration, resilience, and everyone who makes this work possible; our team, volunteers, partners, and supporters who continue to turn purpose into action.

Because real change happens when compassion meets commitment.

Happy World NGO Day

Today, we celebrate not just a birthday, but a life defined by courage, compassion, and purposeful leadership.

Our dear Board Chairman is the true embodiment of selflessness, kind in spirit, passionate in service, and unwavering in her dedication to the cause we all hold dear. As a cancer survivor, she leads the Board of St. Cyril Cancer Treatment Foundation with rare empathy and remarkable strength, transforming her personal experience into a powerful force for change.

During one of our earliest meetings, she asked a question that continues to guide our mission: How do we scale our impact to reach those with limited access to care without ostracizing those who already have access? This question, a commitment to serve everyone regardless of socioeconomic status has significantly strengthened how we deliver care and measure impact.

Her selflessness speaks volumes. Even on her own birthday last year, she chose to dedicate the day to raising funds to improve access to cancer care for others. That single act reflects the heart of her leadership, always placing people first.

On behalf of the Board of Trustees, management, staff, and the entire St. Cyril Cancer Treatment Foundation family, we celebrate you today, ma.

This new year bring you strength, joy, good health, and the fulfillment that comes from the countless lives you continue to touch.

Happy Birthday, Ma.
Your leadership inspires us, and your impact will continue to speak for generations.

Markets are central to daily life in Makoko, particularly for traders whose livelihoods depend on uninterrupted work. Health interventions must adapt to these realities to be effective.

As part of preparatory activities for our project,’Bridging CRC Gaps: Strengthening Awareness, Screening and Referral’, sponsored by ,our project team conducted formal community entry in Makoko through engagement with market leadership.

Official letters were delivered to the Market Women Leader (Iya Oloja) to initiate collaboration and coordination for the outreach.

This intervention is designed to reduce access barriers and minimize income loss while promoting early detection.

Cancer does not discriminate, yet access to prevention and early detection remains unequal, particularly for persons with disabilities. Addressing this gap is essential to achieving equitable healthcare.

As part of preparatory activities for our project, ‘Bridging CRC Gaps: Strengthening Awareness, Screening and Referral’ sponsored by we engaged with community leadership at the National Stadium, Surulere. This visit marked a formal entry into the community and the initiation of collaboration for the outreach.

Through discussions with the Community Chairman and submission of our official letter, we are ensuring that this intervention is community-led, inclusive, and responsive to identified needs.

Equitable healthcare goes beyond intention; it requires deliberate action to remove barriers and extend services to all populations.

Today, on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, we stand with the global community to reaffirm one message:

A truly progressive society is one where every person is seen, heard, valued, and included.

This year’s theme is “Fostering disability-inclusive societies for advancing social progress”. This reminds us that inclusion is not an option; it is a responsibility.

Individuals living with disabilities, including those whose disabilities arise from cancer or its treatment, deserve equal access to healthcare, education, employment, and opportunities that allow them to thrive.

At St. Cyril Cancer Treatment Foundation, we believe that dignity is not something you earn, it is something you deserve.

And when systems, structures, or barriers stand in the way, progress is incomplete.

Today, we celebrate strength.
We honour resilience.
And we commit to creating a society where accessibility is a priority, inclusion is intentional, and equity is non-negotiable.

A more inclusive world is possible and it begins with all of us.
