Product Description

This book brings together a cross-section of friends, colleagues and associates of the most dynamic, influential and formidable women’s rights activists from Africa, who more realistically can be described as a citizen of the world. Bisi Adeleye-Fayemi is better known within her home country Nigeria as ‘Erulu’ Bisi Fayemi the elegant, supportive and popular wife of Dr. Kaode Fayemi, Governor of Ekiti State, Nigeria. However, ovr two decades before her husband became a Governor, Bisi Adeleye-Fayemi was well know across Africa and many parts of the world as a feminist activist, civil society leader, strategist, social entrepreneur and social change philanthropy advocate. To celebrate the 50th birthday of this treasure of Africa in June 2013, this collection of diverse essays, a true reflection of Bisi’s multi-layered networks, aims to pay tribute to her many contributions to feminist movement building and social change philanthropy. It is hoped that these essays will provide readers and opportunity to learn more about an example of African women’s leadership and agency, and how one woman’s capacity for love, nurturing friendships and networks, courage and dedication to hard work, has helped transform lives and communities. – Funmi Olonisakin
