Notable gender activist, Ene Ede is setting February 1st, 2026 aside to look back so as to look forward with greater vigour. Perhaps, the sense of triumph is inescapable after surviving a non-existent medical alarm.
Thanks to God, the larger civil society rose in terms of mobilising resources to facilitate alternative opportunity for her to avail herself of undergoing comprehensive medical attention. It turned out great, medically speaking. Hence the imperative for the February 1st, 2026 reflection, prayers, gratitude and recharging for better activism.
Masterminds of the event told Intervention that the celebration is warranted even if just to make the point that Nigeria can happen to anybody but Nigerians have a fascinating way of rising in solidarity to unmake such adversity. They do it through prayers, financial, logistics, information and other forms of solidarity and fellow feeling unique to them. What a complicated country!
