No Society Thrives Ignoring Widows, Less Privileged- Bolanle Ambode

All for one, One for all

Wife of Lagos State Governor, Mrs. Bolanle Ambode , Monday,  observed that no society can thrive in an atmosphere where widows and the less privileged are continuously ignored and schemed out of welfare calculations, just as she said that all hands must be on deck to put premium on the welfare of the vulnerable members of the society.

Mrs. Ambode, who spoke at the Banquet Hall, Lagos House, Ikeja during an empowerment programme for widows, mothers with multiple births and medical support for the less privileged, said societies can only thrive when the burden on widows are made lighter and the less privileged are assisted in a number of ways to live better lives, and thereby called for deliberate efforts to alleviate their sufferings.

No fewer than 32 widows, 14 parents with multiple births and five non-governmental organisations in the vanguard of helping the less privileged were empowered at the programme.

The programme was put together by Mrs Ambode in conjunction with a non-governmental organization, Hope for Women Foundation (HOFOWEM).

Nigerians tasked on help for less privileged

All for one, One for all

An appeal has gone to good spirited Nigerians to come to the aid of less privileged citizens in society, especially the motherless babies and children orphaned by varying circumstances. 

The Director of Planning, Strategy and Research, DPSR, of Women in Action for Development, WIAFOD, Lady Amaka Ezeude, made the passionate appeal while presenting varying food items and other consumables to the Red Cross Motherless Babies Home, Owerri. “It was not the choice of these hapless, helpless babies that they are in their present condition. There is therefore the need for the rest of us to periodically visit these homes and attend to the special needs of the inmates”, Ezeude said.

While commending some individuals and corporate organizations that have been assisting these special citizens in Nigeria, Lady Ezeude however explained that  it was the tradition of WIAFOD to  engage in activities that would positively change the life  of the less privileged. “We ought to make them have a sense of belonging. We should care for them, particularly, in  the areas of food, shelter, education”, Ezeude said.

All for one, One for all

A number of organisations encourage women empowerment through education at different levels by offering specific scholarships for African women from Africa and developing countries. Although women looking for scholarships can as well apply for other scholarship programmes that are non-gender specific, there are sponsorship programmes that reduce the competition by offering their scholarship programmes solely for women. From the archives of AfterschoolAfrica, below is an updated list of scholarships (undergraduate, Masters, MBA and PhD) that are open for women from African and developing countries.

Domesticate the Child Right Act and enforce it- ACSEC

All for one, One for all

AS part of efforts to secure the future of the girl-child in Nigeria, the Executive Director of African Child Social Empowerment Centre (ACSEC), a non-governmental organisation, Dr. Bonaventure Enemali, has called on all state governments in the country to domesticate the Child Right Act and enforce it.

Enemali made the call recently while speaking at a workshop organised by the organisation for students of Power and Glory International Schools, Ejigbo, Lagos State, in commemoration of last year's International Day for the African Child.

The event, which held with the theme “Accelerating our Collective Efforts to End Child Marriage in Africa” is celebrated on June 16 every year to commemorate an ugly event that happened in Soweto, South Africa on June 16, 1976, where about 10, 000 black school children marched in a column more than half a mile protesting the poor quality of their education and demanding their right to be taught in their own language. Hundreds of the young students were shot, the most famous of which was Hector Peterson. More than 100 people were killed in the protest while over 1000 others were injured.

Empowering the girl child for future challenges

All for one, One for all

Empowering the girl child for future challenges and leadership positions in the society cannot be overemphasised. As campaign for the girl child education is increasing by the day, experts are of the opinion that empowerment of the girl child is something that must not be toyed with.

In championing the cause of the girl child, the South African High Commission in Nigeria established a programme tagged “Take a Girl Student to Work.” The initiative which is being done annually was to expose final year female students in the universities to work environment. The High Commission partners interested public and private organisations willing to absorb the students for the programme.

Partnering on the project, MultiChoice Nigeria has absorbed 20 students from various departments from the University of Lagos in this year’s edition of the programme.

According to the organisation’s Head, Public Relations, Segun Fayose, the exercise was basically about empowering the female child. “It started in 2009 when South Africa celebrated women’s day and every August 9 is declared a public holiday in the country to celebrate women. South African women contributed to the struggle for their liberation. In Nigeria, they made initiative to empower the female child which is a weeklong programme to get expose to work environment. It always involves the final year students where they spend the whole day to have exposure in different units, have practical with us as well as with our contact centres”, he remarked.

DID YOU KNOW?

All for one, One for all

• Statistics by the UN say more than 700 million women are married as children (below 18 years of age). 
• More than one in three or some 250 million are married before 15. 
• Child brides are often unable to effectively negotiate safe sex, leaving them vulnerable to sexually transmitted infections and unwanted pregnancy. 
• Every 10 minutes, somewhere in the world, an adolescent girl dies as a result of violence. 
• In emergencies, adolescent girls are especially vulnerable to sexual violence, and in some cases, are abducted and exploited for sexual purposes by armed groups. 
• Nearly half (44 per cent) of adolescent girls worldwide aged 15 to 19 think a husband or partner is justified in hitting or beating his wife or partner under certain circumstances.

What are you doing in your able capacity to mitigate these monstrously negative statistics?
