Hello everyone!
It’s not sustainable for us to march in the market all the time, but we’ve figured out a way to continue to pass across our message even when we aren't marching.
Thread👇🏾
We have decided to create branded carts that will be situated in strategic places at just Yaba market for now. These carts will play recorded messages of what market harassment is and why it should stop.

#MarketMarchYaba was a BIG success. Big ups and huge thank yous to everyone who showed up. We had expectations, some were met, others were superseded. We stood firmly with one voice and it was clear. We have learnt a lot and can't wait to do more with what we know.
They threw water at us, called us prostitutes, sluts...ashawo.. They said it was our fault that we got harassed. They claimed it was because of our clothing & asked us to stay home if we didn't want to be harassed.
They tried to shame us because they were ashamed. #Success
