Nollywood actress/Activist Stella Damasus marked the World International Day of the Girl Child on Friday 11th Oct,2013 by releasing an emotional video for #childnotbride#
She breaks down in tears and says...
“My heart still bleeds for the millions of girls all over the world who still do not have a voice to speak. They are still given away in marriage even at age 9, no education, no social relevance, no hope for a promising future. I do pray that you will lend your voice and save a child today.”
This woman should give me a break with all this acting and tears. International stats do videos and don't cry. Will her fake tears stop yerima from marrying 9yer old. Abegi
ReplyDeleteSCAM ALERT! SCAM ALERT!! SCAM ALERT!!!
DeleteMiss Petite...pls carry this news.
PTDF is a scam. I was called by PTDF to be trained as a Welder for the Oil & Gas Industry. I sat their aptitude test & passed...then was invited for a 9months training of 3month training for each of the 3 modules. I did the first 3months & have been @ home since May 2012 after d first 3 months training without hearing from PTDF. Now read what d new PTDF boss said after keeping me @ home for 1year & 6months...while expecting him to have a change of heart & call us 500 nigerian youths invited for the training back (the chairman's excuse from www.ptdf.gov.ng). Don't try overseas scholarship program or any other programs of PTDF. They will frustrate u! But read it here:
THE CURRENT FINANCIAL SITUATION OF THE FUND AND
IMPACT ON ITS PROJECTS AND PROGRAMMES
TEXT OF PRESS BRIEFING BY OLUWOLE OLULEYE PhD,
EXECUTIVE SECRETARY PTDF ON CURRENT FINANCIAL
SITUATION OF THE FUND AND IMPACT ON ITS PROJECTS
AND PROGRAMMES
Gentlemen of the Press
Since I assumed duty on May 16, 2013 my priority has
been to ensure that PTDF is properly funded to enable us
meet our most pressing financial obligations. This was
because I met the Agency in a precarious financial situation
with mounting liabilities to contractors and threats of
premature termination of our scholars’ studies due to
delayed remittances of tuition and upkeep allowances.
I am glad to inform you that this situation has greatly
improved as a result of the positive intervention of the
Honourable Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs Diezani-
Alison Madueke who is working tirelessly to ensure the
release of outstanding monies due to the Fund which
accumulated over a three year period.
On our part, we re-directed all available funds towards the
maintenance of our scholars abroad. Today, as I speak to
you, the problems with the students have virtually been
resolved and no scholar, I repeat no PTDF scholar has been
sent back to Nigeria.
I need to emphasize this point in order to clear the air on
some recent publications alleging that PTDF had
temporarily suspended funding of scholarships for students
under its responsibility. This is far from the truth as we
have managed to keep the students in school. Our
students should not be distracted by the publication.
Let me assure you that based on the actions taken so far
by the Hon. Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs Diezani-
Alison Madueke to get us funded, there is a clear indication
that the Federal Government is committed to fulfilling all its
obligations to PTDF, particularly the sustenance of our
scholarship programme and other capacity building
initiatives.
I did assure the Senate Committee on Petroleum
(Upstream) that due to the efforts of the Hon. Minister of
Petroleum Resources, Mrs Diezani-Alison Madueke the
release of our funds is imminent. It is on the strength of
this we have advertised for the 2014/2015 Overseas
Scholarship Scheme and we expect that interested
Nigerians who are qualified for the Scheme will apply
within the time frame allowed for submission of
applications.
.
Gentlemen of the press, PTDF as an Agency of government
does have some financial challenges. This is not unusual as
other public agencies and private organizations sometimes
experience glitches in the processing of funds. The good
news is that the relevant authority responsible for our
funding is on top of the situation. We therefore expect that
within a very short time all outstanding financial issues will
be resolved.
Thank you
Oluwole Oluleye Ph.D
Ok

ReplyDeleteThis ugly woman should shut up her gorilla lips.Which one child has she helped rather than her own children and relatives. They like to show their egos and pretend they have interest of others at heart but they are seeking only their own selfish self promoting egoistic money and self enrichment agendas...Idiot.
ReplyDeleteShe is using this child thing to gain attention. Mumu Ashawo husband snatcher. Think this is a Nollywood movie, why crying like a bush baby with Mary Kay filled face and tacky weave
ReplyDeleteNa wash
ReplyDeleteQuite an emotional video but den sum1 shuld ask madam stella wat nd wat she has done to help des gurls.coming out wit a face filled with make-up nd crying crocodile tears has not done or made any difference....attention seeking malooo
ReplyDeleteThank u anonymous, we should ask her one thing she does to help the situation she is crying about.Hypocrate and attention seeker.The same with Stephanie Okereke, after snatching money meant for nollywood, all she could do is to travel to Malta, France and languishly lavish the money on her self and husband and drive on expensive boats in Valletta(Malta) to come back and pretend to cry for poor Nigerian child bride.These Old gorillas look alike monsters think all Nigerians are stupid and slow in thinking as their so called governor muguns they are playing around. They may be made to pay for this one day

just how she cries in her nollywood movies, how do i know they are real? she's such a drag queen; she should take several seats abeg...... seeking ambassadorship? she should try harder!
ReplyDeleteNollywood movie . Angelina Jolie donates half of her earnings to those in need in Africa, she actually visits war zones and doesn't cry. She acts by making a change. Not sitting behind camera with makeup on and talking trash and crying. You wa.t to speak, take. Flight or bis down to the north and sensitize the parents giving their children out. She just irritates me with these her stupid videos. Mumu
