The Uganda High Commission New Delhi on 4th September 2022 led a group of Ugandans Diaspora in India to take part in the Rotary annual Cancer Run in New Delhi- India.
In her address, Amb Margaret Lucy Kyogire, Deputy Head of Mission, thanked the Diaspora for participating in the Run.
She further reiterated that the High Commission stands in solidarity with this Initiative in an appeal made by Hon. Jeje Abubakhar Odongo, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Uganda, early this week calling for Ugandans Missions abroad to mobilize Ugandans in the diaspora to participate in this noble cause to support the Rotary Cancer Run.
The Deputy Head of Mission drew their 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.
The Ugandan community conveyed a message of gratitude to the staff of the High Commission for inviting them to participate in the Cancer run and pledged to continue supporting this noble cause.
