"When i visited Prisibe community school, i was astonished at the kind of environment where these young ones are expected to learn. The classes were just demarcated with wooden screens and the direct heat from the sun was unbearable. But that not withstanding, these kids are so impressively intelligent. The welcome speech by the senior prefect was so touching. I had a brief seminar with them and was impressed by the intelligent questions they were asking. At the end of the day gifts, stationeries and few scholarships were given , though not much, but as the saying goes" little by little, tiny drops can make an ocean".

"As the handover day fast approaches, i look back and recount all the efforts and sacrifices that have been put in towards a successful reign and i count it all joy. The lives we have touched, the smiles and happiness we have shared and the impact we have made will hopefully go a long way in setting up a chain reaction of charity and philanthropy for posterity. I pass on the mantle with mixed feelings first of all, pride and joy knowing that i have set a good example but also a little sad that the time has come to say goodbye. After all said and done, i promise to continue to do my fair share in making the world a better place in my own little way especially in the lives of our precious little children. Every child is your child, every child is my child. #SmileOfAChild #RoadToTheNigerianQueen2016"
