" Passion and a zeal for change is what pushes me to do what I do.
I don't want to be a part of a world where my kind is seen as subordinate.
I want liberation, I want freedom and I am willing to fight this good fight.
I am beyond excited to be a part of this year's Millennium Fellowship as this would be a platform to create change and achieve at least one of SDG's. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: She is Enough
SHE IS ENOUGH is a project that seeks to educate the girl child and the general public about gender equality and why it is important.
I believe in the phrase "Catch them young" and that is why I would be going to secondary schools across Lagos State to talk to the students about the fact that the female child is not less than the male child, that she should be given the same opportunities as the male child.
She is Enough seeks to hold online meets where we would be discussing and drawing motivation from the lives of women taking charge of their lives. This project seeks to change the narrative by disseminating the right kind of information.
