He urged the religious leaders to join hands with the medical community in championing the cause of HPV vaccination in the country.

“By encouraging HPV vaccination within your congregations, you become advocates of life and guardians of health. You help dispel myths and fears, fostering a culture of prevention and care. This step aligns with the teachings of compassion, protection and stewardship that your faiths emphasised,” he added.
