Disclosing his love for humanity, Steve Eboh made it know that it has been his desire to give hope and love to disadvantaged children born with abnormalities and part of his plans would be to create the much needed awareness for Nigerians who may want to discriminate people living with the problems of sickle cell and Anaemia. He further said that the NGO which has been in existence in the last three years in London is coming to Nigeria due to CARDAN'S way of saving lives and educating Nigerians on the traumas and problems many families are facing in the society today.
