Additional quotes by Yemi Alade

Growing up in Nigeria I have known malaria forever and experienced the disease countless times, so I understand how this disease robs so many children of their ability to go to school and why malaria is a major cause of school absenteeism. I have also lost many loved ones to malaria and that's why I'm here – because we can end one of the biggest, preventable killer diseases of all time.
