Mental health issues deserve equal attention as cancer, HIV, says psychiatrist


A consultant psychiatrist and Chief Executive Officer of Grey Insights, Dr Shola Olowookere, has called for more awareness about mental health-related crises in the workplace. Olowookere urged the government as well as employers of labour to prioritise mental health as they do cancer, HIV/AIDS and COVID-19. He made the call at an event tagged, ‘Repose (Edition 2.0) – An Evening of Self-care through Expressions of Art’, organised by Grey Insights in Lagos. Olowookere said, “The mental health challenge is huge and it is just so sad that we are not talking about it enough. “We at Grey Insights are really trying to implement global best practices.
