The President of Women Arise for Change, Dr. Joe-Okei Odumakin has revealed the plans she has for her baby twins.
Okei-Odumakin gave birth to the twins in the USA in October, 2021 six months after her husband Yinka Odumakin, who was the spokesperson of Yoruba socio-political group, Afenifere, died of COVID-19 related complications.
In a chat with Diademng’s Editor-In-Chief, Okei-Odumakin said her babies would get an education that would prepare them for the future. She also said they would have access to their late father’s writings.
“They will get the type of education which will prepare them for their future like other kids. In time they will read their father’s writings. They will hear and see his recorded materials. We will then take it from there”.
The notable human rights activist said God and people had stood by her since she lost her husband. “God has been there with us. We are grateful for the goodwill of many and the essence of few,” she said.
About the fruits of her efforts as an activist, she said, “fruitfulness of our efforts would not be proclaimed by ourselves. It is our duty to apply our lives and resources to positive activism. That is our chosen path. It is the job of others to track and assess the success. We must not be marking our own scripts”
