Every November 14 is World Diabetes Day, and the theme for this year is ‘The Family and Diabetes’!

The primary aim of the World Diabetes Day and World Diabetes Month campaign is to raise awareness of the impact that diabetes has on the family.

Singer, Dr. Sid, has a message for all and it is that everyone must take the issue of diabetes seriously and get tested. He noted that his father, renowned actor, late Justus Esiri, died of complications of this disease.

“My father passed from complications from Diabetes I urge everyone to take this seriously, old and young get your blood sugar checked.”
