Women have been advised to take their well being seriously while managing their homes and official duties. 


The Vice President, ECOWAS Amazons, a group of female staff of the ECOWAS commission, Marieme Symade the call in Abuja during a health talk and walk by the group as part of activities at the weekend marking this year's International Women’s Day

The ECOWAS Amazons had a road walk of about 5 kilometres within the FCT, Abuja followed by a health talk on prevention of diseases, stress management and risk factors to commemorate International Women’s Day marked worldwide on March  8 annually.
