Statistics show that every 45 seconds, an African child dies of  malaria,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nAdding, \u201cThat is very severe and I am feeling  that apart from the fact that other people are supporting us and the  government is making a move, I think it won&#8217;t be bad to do more and more  because the rate at which people are dying of malaria is alarming\u2026that  goes to say that we need the effort of everybody.\u201d<br \/>\nHe further  indicated that, he was taken aback by what he saw when he together with  2131 and the Richard Addison Foundation visited four hospitals,  Essikado, Effia Nkwanta, Kwesimintsim and the Takoradi Hospitals all in  the Takoradi Municipality, on January 22 to donate mosquito nets to  these facilities.<br \/>\nIndicating that the donation \u201cwas for the  hospitals and not for the patients to take home because we realize that  when they are sick and they come to the hospitals where they are  supposed to be treated, they still get malaria because these hospitals  are dilapidated\u2026\u201d<br \/>\nThe artiste known in real life as Edem  Agbeviadey said later that night, they went around to also donate some  mosquito nets to porters and people who slept at the Takoradi market, on  the streets and the market circle.<br \/>\nHe said he will prompt and  appeal to the government to put particular emphasis on malaria  prevention and care in the country. He also called the citizenry to also  do their bit in helping to save the countless number of lives being  lost to malaria.<br \/>\nThis kind gesture will not be the first time the  rapper is donating to charity. In the year 2009, he donated an amount  of GHc1,000 and a Dell flat screen computer, said to be around 750  Dollars to the Weija Leprosarium.<br \/>\nHe also donated 4 desktop  computers with flat screen monitors and other items which summed up to  GHc3,000 to the Maamobi Polyclinic that same year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hiplife musician, Ayigbe Edem has expressed his displeasure over government\u2019s inability of providing adequate malaria health care to the many Ghanaians.
