WANGARI MAATHAI (R.I.P.)





"TOO EDUCATED, TOO STRONG,
TOO SUCCESSFUL, TOO STUBBORN
AND TOO HARD TO CONTROL!“

"THEY ARE SO INCOMPETENT THAT EVERY TIME THEY FEEL THE HEAT BECAUSE WOMEN ARE CHALLENGING THEM THEY HAVE TO CHECK THEIR GENITALIA IF ONLY TO REASSURE THEMSELVES… I AM NOT INTERESTED IN THAT PART OF THE ANATOMY, THE ISSUES I AM DEALING WITH REQUIRE THE UTILISATION OF WHAT IS ABOVE THE NECK."

"I REALISED THAT I HAVE HUMAN BRAINS AND NOT WOMAN BRAINS SO I SET OUT TO MAKE USE OF THEM."

"THE STRUGGLE MUST CONTINUE... IT IS IMPORTANT TO NURTURE ANY NEW IDEAS AND INITIATIVES WHICH CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE FOR AFRICA."

We lost another "MAMA ÀFRICA". I hope her good deeds will live on continue to inspire us for many years to come. RIP
