“Make We Talk” - Hopes and Dreams for Nigeria’s Young Women

In a feature-length episode, Y-Isha Raphael meets three young women from Lagos, Nigeria who reflect on their hopes and dreams - and how society’s social norms help - and hinder - them in achieving their goals. They explore everything from HIV to family planning, careers - and whether, when they have teenage kids of their own, they will be allowed to have cell phones and use social media!

Joining Y-Isha are

Adeola Ajetunmobi, Secretary of Association of Positive Duties Nigeria

Hassana Ireti Adams, Lagos State Coordinator for NAMFTA

Latin Abiodun Adams, Peer Educator
