DODOMA, Nov. 11 -- DODOMA residents have been urged to take advantage of a three-day free medical screening camp for non-communicable diseases (NCDs) to be held at Nyerere Square Recreation Park from tomorrow until Friday this week.

Announcing the initiative, Dodoma City Director, Dr Frederick Sagamiko said the exercise, the first of its kind in the city, aims to encourage early diagnosis and prevention of life-threatening conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and various forms of cancer.

“The health screening services will run daily from 8:00am to 4:00pm. Residents from Dodoma and nearby councils are all welcome to attend,” Dr Sagamiko said.
