He maintained that although the Cleric was unavoidably absent at the Organization’s Annual African Girl Child Awareness held at the Delta State College of Health Technology Ofuoma on Thursday, her goodwill message was received as communicated.

Save the Girl Child Advocacy Africa is deeply concerned about the broad forces of nature and nurture, and the interplay between them particularly in the life of a girl child and the role the society has in restoring normalcy, he stated.

He further urged the Cleric to uphold her unrelenting efforts in paving the way for women’s leadership and girl child empowerment.

In response, Rev. Edith Obuks appreciated the Executive of the organization for the recognition, adding to maintain the partnership with the Organization.
