Audu Maikori, Desmond Elliot, Ebuka, Monalisa Chinda who spoke on behalf of the celebrities expressed their willingness to keep supporting the cause and celebrated years of their relationships with Emmanuel Ugolee as as they recounted his contributions to the Nigerian entertainment industry.
Patients and donors : A very emotional moment it was for those present as a Miss Susan Ironuah spoke on behalf of people like herself who were living with the disease. She also called on the government to assist with the high cost of weekly dialysis. She remembered late radio personality Chaz B who passed on from the sickness in near tears. Past kidney donors also asked that people be more emphatic and sacrificing to the plight of those who deal with thiis ailment.  
 
Finally, Introduced by the anchor, Tinsel star, Justice Atigogo, Emma Ugolee thanks everyone for their support with special recognition to Ghanian Actress Juliet Ibrahim who does walks against cancer etc, in her country for her encouragement in his establishment of a Nigerian walk against kidney disease. He asked that dialysis be free in Nigeria as it is in Ivory Coast. He announced the immediate commencement of a phase two to the awareness tagged "Talk against kidney disease" where he and celebrities who were unavoidably absent at the walk, would take the awareness to radio and TV talk shows. He would be doing this with "Arise Monalisa Foundation" owned by his friend and Nollywood actress Monalisa Chinda.

I don't understand the point of this walk,
Is it just to create awareness or do they contribute financially to the foundation.

#smh - I saw them on Zenith road and there were only a handful of them. They are marching but will collect bribe from GEJ and want to re-elect him but none of them have asked why GEJ can't build 6 hospitals for kidney transplants and heart surgeries in 5 years???

GOD WILL PUNISH ALL OF THEM USING THIS TO GET FREE PICTURE ON LINDA IKEJI BLOGS.

#smh - The ministry of agriculture was simply being mischievous when it said that it eliminated N26 billion annual corruption in fertiliser distribution. Using the same baseline technique, we can ask what the total budget for fertiliser per year was in those years. That was what Adamu Bello did. The answer may surprise you: N3 billion!

#smh - How can you steal 26 from 3? Bello said the total subsidy between 1999 and 2007 was under N25billion. “This can be verified from the Budget Office of the Federal Ministry of Finance,” he said.
