Mama Africa, Yemi Alade has opened up on the challenges women trying to succeed in life and how their male counterparts can help.
In a post, she posted on her Instagram account on the 8th of July, Yemi Alade posted a picture that tries to describe the challenges face.
The picture shows a group of women and men on a track field, while the men path are clear, the women’s parts are blocked domestic chores like laundry, cooking and ironing.
The singer captioned the picture with a lengthy post explaining how women’s challenges are beyond Domestic chores.

“Sometimes the Obstacles iN OUR WAY might be your LACK OF SUPPORT, your constant need to dismiss us for the satisfaction of your ego, your ignorance about the CONSTANTS in our lives; hormones and biological occurrences that keep us alive and functioning, your silence when we are in need or in danger, your need to makes us prove ourselves Again and again and again and AGAIN.????
Sometimes the Obstacles aren’t are put there by other females, to err is human ????.
This is obviously a one-sided picture with only the perspective of a woman being considered.
Men ALSO have Obstacles but indeed this Is a woman’s perspective.
Support More Females Whenever you can. Start with your mothers, sisters, friends, neighbours.
Be kind today”
