We all go into every nook and corner of our nation to get hidden and unknown, yet very effective cure for the virus that is affordable to all which we will publicize and bring to the knowledge of all on Radio, TV, Newspapers, Social Media etc in English and in all our local languages. Any effective discovery for the cure will be given out to the poor at very cheap rate or free where necessary.

Another very deadly plaque has been predicted will come after coronavirus, l want the youths to join hands together with me and other Mothers in the land to combat the current coronavirus. We should not leave the problem for the government alone to solve for us.
We invite youths from the North and South to volunteer their services”.
