Charly Boy 

Areafada Charly Boy Oputa will join teeming Nigerian men in a walk against prostate cancer known as the most deadly killer of men in the world.

The walk will be on Saturday 19 November 2022 starting at the Jibowu under bridge Yaba and terminating at Teslim Balogun stadium Surulere Lagos to create awareness on the killer disease.

The celebrated communicator, musician, broadcaster, actor and public  commentator took to his Instagram link to promote the event aptly tagged "March 4 men."

He writes "1 out of 6 black men will have prostate cancer throughout their life time and are 2 times more likely to die from it.

Nevertheless there's 96,% survival rate. Thanks to early screening and detection.

Continuing he wrote that he is lending his voice " to the prostate cancer awareness initiative by Dozy Mmobuosi foundation ....I will be joining, supporting and showing my solidarity to the foundation on the march 4 men against prostate cancer awareness walk in Lagos.

" The walk is aimed at creating awareness, educating and giving opportunity for over 1000 men to get screened for free. You can see it is a free for all walk"

In a chat yesterday, Oputa said men should be more open and submit themselves to early tests because that way, lives would be better managed.

When asked if he has prostate cancer, the chief promoter of ourmumudondo group retorted "talk your own first"
