“Young Girl, Secure Your Own Future First Before Scarifying Your Future For The Growth Of A Man”- Lady Shares Mum’s Advise

A young lady named Resilient Joy has shared her mum’s advice on Facebook after the challenges she encountered raising up her kids while attending school at the same time.

Sharing on Facebook, she wrote:

“Yesterday my mum told me how she raised her five children while she was pursuing Education my mum said she work times 10 harder than her mate. My mum told me how she failed two courses after giving birth to my younger sister ten days to her year 4 exam, my Mum affirmly said I will never permit any of my girl child to marry while she has not completed her education or been financially empowered.

My mum said I excel in my career today because I was dogged , not all African women have this mind set. I could only seat with Kwara state educational board members and community stake holders because I defined my life outside my husband . My mum is a beckon of inspiration for me.

Hey young Girl, secure your own future first before scarifying your future for the growth of a man or for family. it so pathetic that African women has been wired that they have to suffer and keep to the family way before they can be termed good woman.

Na, This narrative is not okay.”
