Good day everyone
It has become a matter of concern how so many societies in Africa is still treating the girl child, despite modern civilization, and as a matter of fact I brought it here so we can talk on it extensively.
Many countries today still believe that the female gender's place is in the kitchen, and some African men still believe that the woman shouldn't be given equal right as the male gender, and this is really drowning Africa back and leading us nowhere.
The female should be given same rights just as the men, and until this happen most things will never change for the better. It really saddens me when I still see some men struggling to send or train their girl child through schools and even when they try, some will still stop half way believing that a woman's place is just to give birth to children and take care of her home. Sometimes I ask myself, if a woman can take care of her children, home, and even family members with so much love and affection, just imagine that same woman ruling a nation and see how prosperous that nation with be.
Am an African man, but I honestly think woman should be treated fairly and should be treated right politically, socially, and even economically. It is true that if you train a woman very well, you're training not just a woman for your home but a Nation as well.
So many African men feels or believe that our colonial master did us wrong by bringing us civilization and exposing us to modernization, but I think that's not true and as a matter of fact, we are our own problem. Some even believed that the rules that was guiding us before we cross parts with the white-men, were best for us but that's wrong.
Women are more smart and critical-thinkers than men if am being real and honest here, and I think they deserve the opportunity of ruling politically, I think they should be given the opportunity to lead prominent social platforms here in Africa and see how it goes. I believe that the change we're looking for lyes within us and I also strongly believe that women should be encouraged, supported with the duties of leadership and let see how far Africa will develop.
If you agree with me, drop a 💯 for me and also share your thoughts in the comments session.
