MY THOUGHTS ON GENDER EQUALITY By Mide Benedict



I believe the word equality should be a word that synchronizes our thoughts on living, on character correction and human rightness. It should not be an ideology left or embraced by one person, a few or perhaps many; rather it should an ideological stance that captures and envelopes the mind of every human being. 
It should be a word being used as a compulsory synonym to freedom because if we say we fight for freedom or we have won freedom for humanity, while leaving the female gender behind, then our struggle, blood and act are false and cannot be in anyway accepted as freedom. It's like rescuing a cow but leaving its horns behind; it's most evident the cow with not survive the blink of time. 

I strongly believe that if education is you to be offered, then it should be for all, speech, it should be for all, and also employment should be based on capacity and the ability of the human being being tested for the employment opportunity, wheter or not they are suitable for the position and not stereotypically achieved. And that is the more reason education should be made compulsory for the female child so as to achieve an extensive as well as impressive sense of equality. There will therefore exist a challenge for both the male and the female to improve on themselves and become better and responsible beings accorded respect or positions in the society. No more male superiority or female affectional factor, rather it should be gender equality. 
This will allow employment opportunities be based on capacity and merit; a contest between brains and not on gender stereotypical ideas or fallacies. 

However, at this moment in our history, the girl child should be given precedence and encouragement because over the years, she has been a victim of severe educational and vocal derogation and degradation and in line with this, must be brought to limelight in order to achieve this equality we speak of.

 I say yes to Equality. What do you say? 7

TIED TO FREEDOM by Mide Benedict

Don’t hold me down L ike I’m in some cave Just like a bird flies Where nothing breathes light Through a hidden dark sky L ike an existence lost in inexistence, Locked up in a bottle     T hat only lives every day in an every minute coffin Tightened with an unbreakable cover.    Free me I said, but you brought me this! What freedom is more painful than   Eye balls without sights; faith without work like To walk on a spot;                    Mountains tied to your legs   While eyes go dark                    As you walk unmoving: In a place surrounded by light;            What a freedom!
