Women Empowerment: Gender Equality

It has become necessary that we speak up for so many women who seem to suffer a great deal ! As a catholic priest , I have had opportunity to intervene into situations that have put the woman at greater risk of been violated by the male gender .
Sequel to this , I started an advocacy program title “ let the woman have her say “ this is geared towards giving them a sense of honour and fame and recognizing their value.
I have had the privilege of speaking to women groups as many as five .
In my moment of Interactions , I see that many have been abused and cannot even speak out .
The goal of this new force movement is to be an advocate for women; to create a platform upon which they can have people listen to them . Let them share their stories ; at least let them have a voice .

Today in far Selagi, I was privileged to receive a powerful delegation of women ; they called themselves ladies of wisdom .
This group has as its objective , the desire to fight for the girl child .
They are into empowering the girl girl . This infact is what I also live for . This is my calling ; this is my vibe . I love the idea and I keyed fast into it .
I was happy to be with such great women of uncommon initiative.

Highlights from the visit .

We spoke about making the girl child relevant
The need for this was occasioned by the fact that the female folk is one of the most vulnerable and most abused . For most part of the world , the female hood is relegated to the background and their voices are hardly heard . In politics they are often not considered and in many aspect of economic life , very few make it to the top .
A sitting President of a west African country, reduced the female hood in his description , that “ your function is in the kitchen and the bedroom” and not on political affairs . This for me was not only insulting and demeaning but also shows the lack of understanding of what the girl child stands for .

It is in the light of this consistent and persistent underrating of the girl child that , I met with this group of powerful women who have also sort the initiative to award scholarship training targeting the girl child to give her a boost ; independence , freedom and a say in our society . little by little drops the ocean will be formed .
We as a people are determined to give opportunities that would lead to total freedom or some level of liberation from the constant molestation of women by some men . While we cannot do so much , the little We have can do lot for so many ; this shouldn’t and won’t be neglected.

To achieve this set goal , we as a group agreed to initiate a resource center whose prerogative is to train people in all kinds of skills , ranging from ,
Ankara and beeds work
Decorations
Computer training
Tailoring
Catering services . Etc

The beneficiaries whom will be mostly women , will be accorded training in various skills , to help them improve their way of life.

We are hopeful that , after their training , they should be better equipped to help themselves as well as give back to the society what they too have received through the goodwill of others .
This training will last for three to six months , depending on the skills to be squired . For my part , all done will be in the name of blurt .

The following are the skills to be learnt .
Makeover , Catering services ;
Event management and decoration .

Projecting into the future .
In the past , I organized a similar training; the impact was huge and the training was success . People were able to learn certain skills that helped improved their life . Today , am happy that they are doing quite well . I am optimist that , this noble project will also see the test of time . I believe it will be successful . For me this is one of the major ways of giving back to society what is needful .

There are places where women don't get their rights and authorities properly. But to make a society strong, civilized, prosperous and developed it's necessary to empower women. If women are week in a nation, it never increase fully. Thanks for your efforts!

Looks like things are a little bit different in Africa than in Europe and the US. Here they teach children that they can change their sex or identify themselves as the opposite sex. I hope Africa won't follow this dangerous ideology.
Anyways, good to have you here and learn something about your continent. Good luck with your new project

Absolutely!! The mentality in Africa is so bad . One begins to wonder why so .
Thanks 🙏 for the best wishes
