The Plights of our Mothers Foundation

I have a mission to deliver African women from the shackles of African myths and tradition that has relegated a quite number of them to zero relevance in our society.

For how long are we going to pretend that all is well with the feminine gender in our society?

From the little I have seen in some part of Africa, the eastern part of Nigeria for instance are most guilty of this wicked act. Most time, the prosecution is not as a result of strong indications that their son was being killed by the wife, but the greediness of acquiring the property of the deceased. They tend to make every one believe that their son was being killed by the wife. Some others will even come plain by saying the wife is not capable of managing the husband’s property. The extremist amongst them will chase out the widow and the children, leaving the widow to fend for her-self and
