Our member, Lois Hembadoon Adura, has published a powerful book about the real life ordeals of females living in a community with male preferences.
One of the greatest injustices within the human race over thousands of generations is the belief that females are inferior to males. Coupled with factors such as widespread poverty, lack of education, religious beliefs and unjust traditional laws made and enforced in favour of the male folk in the African culture.
By refusing to celebrate the female child at birth, treating her as a liability (something good only for marriage), failing to grant her access to quality education, blaming her for childlessness in marriage, depriving her of a share in the family inheritance as well as treating her like part of her husband’s property to be inherited, we all contribute to this great injustice that has brought about untold hardships to women today.
This book not only brings these in justices to the fore by telling first-hand stories of victims, but it is also a call for positive action – a call for repentance. Do you desire a better world for the whole of mankind? This book is just for you. And proceeds for the book will go towards launching a Charity Foundation in Nigeria for women to support them against these injustices.
The book is available on Amazon. Help Lois launch her Charity Foundation. Buy this book.
