Dorcas revealed that she started her projects long before she joined the office of the second lady.

“It is okay that the country doesn’t want the second lady to have a budget, but I will continue to fight for the boychild even without the budget,”

“That is a vision and passion I have for the boychild. I CAN stop because I started even before I was in office, I believe you and I can be able to make it.” She added.
