...... As she lifts 753 Adadama children through her scholarship scheme
The immediate past Director General of the Cross River State Primary Health Care Development Agency (CRSPHCDA), Dr Betta Edu, has paid school fees for 753 pupils in Adadama Political Ward of Ani Local Government Area of Cross River State.
Speaking in Calabar, Dr. Edu, in her usual magnanimity, support, love, and passion to contribute to Spirit of new Cross River anchored by her political father, the Governor of the state, Sir Ben Ayade and to ensure a brighter future for the children who are leaders of tomorrow, explained that the project which she started three years ago has become a yearly routine for her.
She said that she was fully aware of the devastating effect war can have in the lives of people and what constant conflicts have reduced the economy of her people to nothing,leading to massive dropout of children school.
The immediate past Director General of CRSPHCDA who thanked the governor, Sen Prof Ben Ayade for giving her the opportunity in the last tenure to serve the state and thereby equally have the privilege to be of great help to her people especially the children, has also made a promise to extend this good will and kindness to other waring communities in Abi LGA if only they would be ready to maintain the peace in return
Propelled by the famous saying of the Governor and her political maater that, “We don’t give because we have enough, we give because we care enough” , Dr. Edu, stated, "I want to reproduce Several Sen Ben Ayade” in Cross River. My aim is to ensure that every child is given a chance and parents who are facing the challenge of returning their wards back to school can be relieved of such pressure".
She further explained that her gesture of paying school fees and other charges for the children was completely far from being political, stressing that "this is not political, it’s my give back to God and humanity.
I know the challenges most parents face sending their children to school, I know the importance of Primary Education as the foundation for every child. It's not because I have enough, but it gives me sleepless nights to hear that children drop out of school, most times I cry in secret when I can’t help.I want to support them by giving them a future and a stable education," Dr. Edu asserted.
What I'm doing is in keeping with the principles of my father Sen Ben Ayade to support a new generation of Cross Riverians that will drive the industrialization Revolution in the state, my desire is to assist parents, "Edu concluded.
