Hmmm....you guys will definitely love this true confession coming from an Australian born Nigerian female model, Nnenna...as published on modernghana....read below:
Austrian born Nigerian model and actress, Lydia Nnenna
Obute, has expressed her observations that lots of African women are craving
for men that are already living large, without wanting to develop themselves.
According to her, she admitted that African women are living
their dream, but shocks her to see the way women just plan their lives into
men's heart without even knowing how the man has suffered to get to that point.
'African women are living their dreams? To be honest, I see
a lot of African women craving for men that are already living large. They just
plan their lives into those men's lifestyles. I was raised by a mother who is
very strong and she also runs a restaurant in Vienna. The women around me are
mostly strong and I think that is what every woman needs to grow up with, being
around strong women who can serve as role models to other young women,' she
urged.
Lydia revealed that her reason for coming back to Nigeria
and one of her greatest achievement, was to give back to the society and in a
few weeks she and her team were planning to visit some schools here in Nigeria
with the 'Back To School project' which is her proposed initiative she hopes to
execute.
"Any time,I come to Nigeria with my family, it's always
about family on vacation. So, this time around, I decided to come back home on
my own. It's also about giving back to society, and being more involved in the
things that concerns my roots. I thought the best way to do that will be
working with kids. I love working with kids and I thought it will be a nice
idea to go to schools and impact on the students not just with gifts, but also,
with such skills that will help to equip them ahead of future challenges,"
she stated.
"I find it appalling when children do not have access
to education. In the Austrian tradition, when kids are going back to school,
they are being equipped with a pack of gifts which contain educational
materials they will need in school. So, I am thinking of sharing a lot of the Back
To School bags in schools," she disclosed.
