I met Joy begging in Abuja one night with her baby. I asked her why, she doesn’t look like someone that has to beg. Joy is from Benin in South West Nigeria. Her story is so typical it could be the story of every Nigerian woman. Her husband abandoned her with 3 children and a fourth one on the way. Listen to her story. You will cry.
She’s not posh, or educated, she sounds more like a bad Nollywood script sometimes but she is the average Nigerian woman, the uneducated, urban dwelling women who struggle to raise children and keep their husbands by their side each day.

I can so relate to almost everything this woman has said. It is easy to say because she is uneducated she is at a disadvantage but that would be so wrong. I have friends who are the breadwinners in their loveless marriages, I was abandoned by my boyfriend when I told him I was pregnant with my child, I have been so broke that I was worried what my child would eat. I have had men proposition me because I asked for money or some sort of help. I feel her pain. And I am sure there are many more like her.
First things first, how do we get funds to her?
There is a bank account number in the description if your out of the country send me an email and I will send details lesleyagams@yahoo.com
