The Chief Responsibility Officer (CRS) of Josemaria Escriva Foundation, Dr. Jude Obasanmi made the call at Ekpoma Tuesday, 25 April during the 2023 world malaria day celebration. This year's malaria day with the theme "Time to deliver zero malaria: invest, innovate, implement”, was celebrated by  Josemaria Escriva Foundation with medical out reaches at Ekpoma in collaboration with the Medical Women Association of Nigeria, Ambrose Alli University Medical Students Association (AAUMSA) and Indomitable Youths Organization. Speaking during the celebration, Obasanmi noted that "Each year, it is estimated that about 300,000 Nigerians die of malaria related illnesses with urgent action required to address its prevalence.  "In Edo State, Josemaria Escriva Foundation, has been at the foref

This sounds like Hausa/Fulani or Yoruba always wants to hang on to power because they feel they are in majority. Reason an Igbo can't make it to be president, because they don't have what it takes. Who says? Equity is fairness, and fairness is justice. If you castigate the actions of Hausa/Fulani/ Yoruba in Nigeria, then stand up for what is right. Stop castigating the APC for producing (Tinubu) a Yoruba, after Obasanjo had been president. When you support another Edo south or north, to continue in power, come 2024, you doing same.

 In Support Of Governor From Edo Central. By Moses Imafidon  In moments o f deep introspection, I always have this feeling that this world will be a better place for all , if we toe the path of not  doing to others what we do not want them to do unto us. After a retrospective journey into our past as a state-- from the years as Midwest through Bendel and now , Edo, I have been constrained to make the following remarks. Edo State stands on a tripod--- Edo South, Edo Central and Edo North. I am a  Benin man,and I honestly feel that ordinarily,  there shouldn't have been debate over the Senatorial District  the next Governor of Edo State should come from, if we are all willing to allow fairness have its way. I make this pronouncement with a deep sense of history powered by the need to allow the tripod on which Edo stands  to be have  equal access to fairness. Let's look at where we are coming from since I999 as a state. 1. Lucky Igbinedion, Edo South-- 8 years. 2.  Osunbor-- Edo C

  Looking at the history of Edo State right from independence it may beat your imagination that two Senatorial districts have actually dominated the helms of affairs as Administrator and Governors. The Edo North and Edo South have always been in charge while the Edo Central have been perpetually left out.  Nigeria A little dive into the pre-independence era, we can attest that Chief Anthony Eromosele Enahoro CON of blessed memory was one of Nigeria's foremost anti-colonial and pro-democracy activists. He was also very instrumental in the struggle for Nigeria's independence and he hailed from Uromi. His track record shows that he did well.    Post-independence, we also had Prof. Ambrose Alli who ruled in the then Bendel State has his legacy still speaking volume today. He happens to be the last of those that has come from Edo Central Senatorial District. However, historically, during his reign, neither the Edo State nor the Senatorial District systems were in place but w
