Influence of Radio Niger Health Campaign on Eradication of Breast Cancer among Women in Niger State

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the influence of radio campaigns on the eradication of breast cancer on women in Niger State. Survey research design was adopted, while questionnaire was the instrument for data collection. The population of the study constitutes all the women in Minna (841, 423), while the sample size of 260 was drawn, using the Kretcie & Morgan sampling table. The
findings showed that most of the women have access to health matters on radio Niger; more than 50% of the respondents agreed that they get information about breast cancer from the station, with limited feedback tools in place. It was recommended that health matters should have more feedback tools in order to encourage participation among the audience.
