#Nigeria needs a paradigm shift from the roles assigned to women - cultural and religious perceptions against women that hinders their maximum exploits in science, politics, economy, education and policy making spaces.
Women in rural suffer the most, they battle with chronic societal mindset, where they are seen as booties of suffering, abandoning their dreams to domestic chores, many forced into early marriages and some never had the opportunity to dream at all.
A woman's role should go beyond giving rise to offsprings, beyond her biological responsibilities. A woman deserves to be fulfilled. Whatever she desires to aspire, she should get. To be happy and have peace
A girl, has a choice, a right and equal opportunity because she is a human and her right. Whether born in the village, she has equal opportunity. For food, shelter, education, clothing and health.
Sadly, this is not the reality.
Every woman deserves to smile and be happy, to dream and be celebrated, to be successful, to have a choice, to beam brightly #TheFuture
