How can the world become a better place if we do not invest in education? What is the solution for breaking the cycle of poverty and despair in developing nations? Why the best investment a person can make is investing in education for girls. Our guest today was a girl living in poverty but not despair. She had a father who believed that girls should be educated and ensured his daughter had the same advantages as a boy.

Featured on The Oprah Winfrey Show in a segment entitled, Mothers/Moms of the World the Right Honorable Bakoru-Bakoko Zoe a Former Minister of Gender, Labor and Social Development, is a health policy expert and as a public health nurse administrator, she recruited and trained community health workers and developed health outreach programs to underserved communities.
