It sucks how as a person from a low-income family, you may never get to independently decide what you want to do with your life (professionally) and pursue it without overthinking the financial implication and unpredictability of the future. I’ve been moving with crazy courage.

I grew up where teenage pregnancy was rampant. Girls were dropping out of school here & there and that was the end. Heck, a girl in my class couldn’t write SSCE because she got pregnant in SS3. Why do we treat teenager mothers like dirt, like their lives are over? They’re not.

My own is that you can’t fight for gender equality while insisting that it’s a man duty to take care of you, solely because you’re a woman. Men’s entitlement to women’s bodies and women’s entitlement to men’s money are symptoms of patriarchy. You can’t end one without the other.

Blocked a friend who kept pressurizing me to open up to him last night, because he could help. He was almost driving me crazy. Some of you do harm in a bid to help. Tuck in your savior syndrome. Empathy will make you listen more than talk/pressure.

Inclusion doesn't threaten my existence. I've not been hurt by a trans woman before or know someone who has been, so I'm working with what I know. I know trans women are more at risk. So, why should I gatekeep? I'm working with empathy and basic human rights. Till I know better.

Hi, if you have been harassed online as a result of your stance on women rights issues/Feminism/Sexual Reproductive Health and Rights, kindly send me a message. I'm working with an organization to document the lived experiences of Nigerian women who have faced digital harassment.

Nobody is coming to save you. Save yourself. Advocate for yourself. Stand up for yourself. Speak for yourself. Defend and protect yourself.
