ambassador for the Fight Against Violence on Women in Elections

The actress, while accepting the honor at the Abuja venue of the event
said, “I pledge my full support, my voice and everything within my
capacity to make sure that these issues are brought to light and to
help educate people about this violence and see ways we can put an end
to it so that we can have a better society for ourselves, and future
generation.”

interest in feminine gender issues, especially in her movies, some of
which tackle a host of feminine problems like, domestic abuse, Vesico
Vaginal Fistula (VVF), and so on.
Although the expectant thespian is heavy with her first child, this
