nationwide anti-child labor campaign dubbed the ‘Save the Child’ campaign.
The

Affairs, seeks to identify, assemble and raise funds to support deprived
children across the nation.
The project will also seek to educate and sensitize the general
public as well as propose and execute projects that will go a long way to curb
the ascendancy of this canker in the country. The project will present
solutions to other problems that result in child labour such as parental
poverty, unemployment, rural urban migration, child abuse, HIV AIDS amongst
others.

documentary series dubbed the ‘Save the Child’ television series to be aired on
TV.
According to Brein Consult, the ‘Save The Child’ project is set to
be launched on December 28, 2012 and will officially take off in January 2013.
Face of Tertiary is the premier beauty pageant bringing

compete for one coveted crown to be the face of all tertiary institutions in
the country.
