FIGHT AGAINST BREAST CANCER


Breast cancer on the rise

Breast cancer on the rise




There are many sicknesses which name quickly strike fear in people when mentioned. Apart from Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS), Cancer has continuously put many people into mystery and fear. 



There are many cancer diseases but breast cancer is very common. Both men and women are often diagnosed with cancer but the rate of women with cancer is much higher than men.

According to medical research, one of every eight women expected to develop breast cancer during their lifetime. That means that at any age, whether young or old, one could easily get cancer.

Further medical research reveals that cancer is hereditary, that is if it’s in the gene or DNA of your family one could easily get cancer.

Operations removing this deadly sickness from the breast are mostly successful but if the disease has spread badly, some people completely lose the entire breast. That is the sad aspect of life for any victim of cancer. Some cancer is quickly detected others are not seen until its last destruction stages.

As cancer doesn’t discriminate the need to see the doctor as soon as one sees and feels any unfamiliar symptoms with his or her health is very necessary.

Institutions must raise the awareness of breast cancer and the need to raise money to fight this disease is very necessary. Finally, survivors of breast cancer should share their experiences to encourage other victims.

MUSIC: LUCKY DUBE IS GONE, BUT MUSIC LIVES FOREVER

Lucky Dube


Lucky Dube




"Nobody can stop reggae

Nobody can stop reggae

Nobody can stop reggae
'Cos reggae's strong."



You can change the style of playing reggae
You can change the rhythm of playing reggae
But never ever change the message every time I play it a Babylon A wish me fe dead, a wish me fe dead"

That is the wonderful lyrics, of one of the greatest tunes of the South African Reggae legend, Lucky Dube. October 18, marks the 5th year anniversary of the murdered superstar in his country. 

Through hard work, Lucky rose to be Africa's bestselling and outspoken reggae star, unfortunately, he didn't live long to enjoy his fruits of labour. Lucky, met his untimely death in an attempted car hijack.

In one of his interviews granted to me at Pole-Pole festival in Antwerp, Belgium, a couple of years ago, Lucky said, "I know that the fall of Apartheid, I was part of it in some way."

His music was just like an arrow piercing through the flesh of the bad ones and the light to those engulfed in perpetual darkness. Truly, some great people don't live long. In a relatively short period, Lucky recorded  22 classic albums in Zulu and English.

Even though Lucky is gone, his music will never die. His music is aired more than any African reggae star. May his soul rest in peace and music continue to inspire others like his daughter Nkule, and others to follow him.
