Mr Kelvin Odanz here is of the opinion that Nigerian feminists are middle class hypocrites who exploit the movement for their own selfish gains without consideration for poorer women.

Read his tweets below;
"In the real world in Nigeria, women are subject to stigmas, stereotypes and acts of violence especially those from the lower class: widows, single mothers etc

It is important that their plight is never sidelined amidst today's frivolous gender war

More than half the population in Nigeria falls within the lower class, and women from this class bear the greatest brunt of limited wealth and opportunities in Nigeria.

This is mostly true in societies where the economy is build around human labour (strength) and not knowledge.

Feminism, on one hand, is really not interested in the plight of these rural/lower class women.

It is a movement for mostly middle class, well educated women who exploit the "plight of women" for their own advantage, to wrest power for themselves---in the name of women.

But in Nigeria where much of the economy is built around human labour (strength), women are disadvantaged.

And we must not surrender their plights to feminists, or confuse feminism as a struggle for Nigerian lower class women-- especially widows, single mothers, peasant women

There are still laws that need to be legislated around women's access to capital and how the wealth/property of deceased spouses should be distributed.

Chivalry and Twitter Bio and whether to use Miss or Mrs are frivolous obsessions ---Chimamanda/Feminist obsessions

Much of the issues around unequal distribution of wealth and opportunities can be solved through legislations and reforming the economic system away from just human labour.

These should be the conversation on the local level and on a national level.

We must also resist feminists who polarise these issues for their own advantages. They own NGOs/projects that barely scratch the surface of the problem; they get grants, attend international conferences "on behalf of Nigerian women".

They're all opportunists and hypocrites.

Also worth resisting are feminists who peddle lies and hatred for men amongst women online, sensationalize gender issues and use such chaos and gender wars as a ladder. All toxic opportunists.

Caring about real issues of women in Nigeria is not mutually exclusive with feminism."

na now u know? whenever oyinbo pipu are tired of one word or aphorism, they'll just coin another one and throw it at us

Men he couldn't have said it any better, femininism is not entirely based on gender equality rather most women use it as a tool to their advantage.

You are not far from the truth. They watch to much of American movies so they feel Africa will soon be like America. The one weh tire me pass was when Serena Williams was demanding same pay with top male tennis players. You play best of three and the males play best of five and you want same money huh! Male tennis generates far more income but you want them to cut the income from male tennis and add to yours. Wonderful people.

The chimaamanda of a woman that's pushing this thing too far will not agree to drive a truck or operate a heavy machine but wants to feel equal with the men who do the most tedious work on the planet

DO WE ACTUALLY HAVE FEMINISTS IN AFRICA OR JUST A COLLECTION OF BRAINWASHED FRUSTRATED IDIOTS.

Well, irrespective of who is/was fighting for this equality right or from whatever perspective.......All i know is women are the problem of this world and i will never support entrusting them with things that needs mature and unbiased handling except the consequences only affects the person in question.

Every crime ever committed was/is to please a Mother/sister/galfriend/ wife/daughter. (female).....guess thats the world order

But my confusion is why men are the officer that enforce this fruitless agitation......because in the end men bears the burden of chaos created by women


like i was just saying this very evening that " i now understand why people always ask if you re in a relationship or married (to judge if you re responsible)....is to know if you re yet to have a problem(s) in your life or not.

The obvious is what the op has pointed out........in real situations, they dont even care about their fellow women.......take survey of how almost every women (wife) treat their house help on the average

Instead of changing the system and abolitioning these laws, and stigmas his solution is to resist feminism

There are still laws that need to be legislated around women's access to capital and how the wealth/property of deceased spouses should be distributed.

In the real world in Nigeria, women are subject to stigmas, stereotypes and acts of violence especially those from the lower class: widows, single mothers etc

I wonder if feminism supports these legislation or endorses these stigmas

Feminism has become the new Buhari... when doubt blame feminism

Hhhmmmmmmmm.......and you r saying?? . Busy yourself with feminism, it is a man that lose the match to argentina .

Argue with your keypad biko.
