hmmm...in niger state, most of dey women dem can only come outside when their husbands give permission. so how dey pekin dem lor manage mehn? da jes pure slavery.. :

they call it the 'puda system'. if yor husband na agree, u dont come out (and most times he will not). when you finally come out, you have to be covered-head to toe. they say the men dem lor do plenty work for this thing bisness-draw water, bring wood-all because dey dont want any pekin to 'eat' natin. my pressure went up.

rufus, it is bad in liberia. da one lor make everyone here vex; however when a guy who calls himself comrade and claims to be working on effecting changes in hs communty, proudly says in the open that he locks up his wife because religion demands that, i am so shaking my head. the two men with me (indian and british) claimed that he was joking. my west african sixth sense told me no. so we called him again and asked-he confirm. a man who does not lock up his wife is not a man. in fact, even if she gets involved in petty trade, he ensures that it is stuff that only kids buy-chewing gum, soda. they thot he was joking so they asked the head of the network we were talking to...he said it was no joke. finally they believed that women were being locked up.
