REMEMBERING
REMEMBERING KEEPS Our memory ALIVE OF the day we held the first meeting and the rain fell, Ajegunle, Lagos Nigeria flooded and how we held our shoes IN our hands and SWAM out of the black dirty water.
IT WAS Then we said, “We will do it”.
We looked at moving beyond and moving from Hope to Development, and the Women’s movement changed its name to the Niger Delta Women’s movement for Peace and Development (NDWPD) in 2007.
