According to the Dbanj:

“For me, first of all, the theme of the summit is why we’re here. It’s investing in the next generation. I’m glad I’m privileged to be from the next generation.”

Edward Osim Opens Up On Why he married President Jonathan's Daughter

Godswill Osim Edward who got married to President Jonathan's daughter Faith Sakwe on April 12th in Abuja, finally opens up on why he married her. Speaking with Ovation magazine, Edward said:

"What struck me was the humility of her parents, especially her dad. Both of them do not despise people and do not judge you based on your background.

That is rare these days"

Also said that as a young man he knew he would be great in life and so was in search of a homely woman who would help him manage the home front and raise God fearing kids. He says in Faith he found that trait. Continue to read and see what Faith had to say about her husband...

"They are removing the bodies from their homes and are putting them out in the street. They're exposing themselves to the risk of being contaminated. We're asking people to please leave the bodies in their homes and we'll pick them up.
