As at 2014 statistics available to me the death rate is as follows on cancer related ailment.

Kenya. 40,000 per year

Nigeria. 98,000 per year.

Besides the cost, if you know the pains during treatment (chemotherapy) and adverse effect of drugs that cancer patients are exposed to, you will not wish even your enemies to have cancer.
