From bedroom supporters and kitchen overseers to full participants in society

Although there are over a dozen women in the top rungs of political leadership in the Federal Government of Nigeria, not even one state governor is female, nor has ever a president or leading presidential candidate been female.  Women and men of Nigeria, are we ready to show the world how gender equality is done?

Disappointingly, even in university student union elections, can you believe that many believe the president should be a guy, with the deputy/vice/assistant post going to a girl?  If only I was a girl in such a school :)

The gay issue

I don't actually know the gay community in Nigeria.

 What I do believe is that all this anti-gay sentiment I see around is terribly painful. 
Those who hate homosexuality, what are you afraid of?  Is it not enough to use your religion to govern your own life and allow the other person to live in peace?

Here is a link to the "Midterm Report of the Transformation Agenda."  It's 200+ pages, no pictures, but that shouldn't deter you from downloading and commenting on it.  That's one way to love your country.
