On World Diabetes Day, former cricketer Wasim Akram has raised concerns about the increasing number of diabetic people in Pakistan and said it is the time to fight against it.

Akram took over social media and said, more than one-quarter of Pakistan’s population is diabetic.

“It’s very concerning that diabetes affects more than one quarter of the whole population of Pakistan,” he tweeted.

The former cricket captain urged people to prevent it through diet and exercise.

“We as a nation need to be more aware of what we are putting into our bodies and how we can prevent diabetes through diet & exercise. The time is now,” he wrote.
