Am calling upon everyone to focus on empowering both the boy child and girl child so that we can have a harmonious social context. A society where people can live, reason, support and care for each other swiftly. That’s a society where everyone dreams to belong. Our young men need empowerment and support for society to have a safe and harmonious life.

Empowering men will enable build a society of responsible men who respect their wives or other women and children, men who will be ready to sacrifice themselves for the people and social development and continuity. Imagine a society where its men are not empowered? Society would lack balance and harmony, social relations would not work anymore, a woman would want to get married but would not find an empowered and responsible man. It is evident today as noted in our recent news where there is a high rate of single mothers in our society.

There is therefore great need to empower our men, men who are emotionally and mentally strong in managing their families, men who will provide for, protect and care for their loved ones.

The boy child has to be empowered so as to attain balance in the society. when a man is not empowered the society stops functioning. women will lack husbands, children will lack supportive fathers, no security for both men and children, chaos will erupt, corruption will be the norm and everything will go shoddy.

A man is a special person in the society, as a matter of fact every society needs a male figure for it to function very well, so we cannot afford not getting concerned about the boy child.

It’s important to note that am not against the feminist society and women empowerment initiatives however, I feel it’s time we also paid close attention to the concerns of the boy child, let’s empower both genders and by doing so we achieve balance, harmony and order in our society.
