“Make We Talk” - Hopes and Dreams for Nigeria’s Young Women


Listen Later

In a feature-length episode, Y-Isha Raphael meets three young women from Lagos, Nigeria who reflect on their hopes and dreams - and how society’s social norms help - and hinder - them in achieving their goals. They explore everything from HIV to family planning, careers - and whether, when they have teenage kids of their own, they will be allowed to have cell phones and use social media!


Joining Y-Isha are


Adeola Ajetunmobi, Secretary of Association of Positive Duties Nigeria

Hassana Ireti Adams, Lagos State Coordinator for NAMFTA

Latin Abiodun Adams, Peer Educator


This episode is produced by Emmanuel Uduma, Erik Espera and Ben Plumley in association with The Global Listening Project, The MTV Staying Alive Foundation and Frontline AIDS.
