As a Nigerian 🇳🇬, it was a deeply proud and emotional moment for me as @UNMalawi welcomed @TiwaSavage to Malawi 🇲🇼 and to witness firsthand the impact of her mission. What stayed with me was that this visit was so much more than music. It was about using voice, visibility and influence to give hope, inspire young people and stand with women and girls against gender-based violence, child marriage and all forms of violence and discrimination. Seeing @TiwaSavage engage with women, girls and young creatives and seeing the excitement, confidence and possibility her presence sparked was a powerful reminder of what African excellence can achieve. She came as a global African icon, but her message was deeply human: our girls deserve to dream without fear, our women deserve to live free from violence, and our young creatives deserve the opportunity to turn their talent into livelihoods. I was proud as a Nigerian. Inspired as an African. And reminded that when we use our platforms with purpose, we can help change lives. Thank you, @TiwaSavage , for lending your voice to something bigger than all of us. 🇳🇬🤝🇲🇼@MissAmadi @undpmalawi @UNDPAfrica @UNMalawi @GlobalSpotlight @jmartyns @NTikum #TiwaSavage #EndGBV #WomenAndGirls #CreativeEconomy #Africa

“In this life there are no gains without pains. Life indeed would be dull if there were no difficulties. Games lose their zest if there is no real struggle,—if the result is a foregone conclusion. Both winner and loser enjoy a game most if it is closely contested to the last.

No victory is a real triumph unless the foe is worthy of the steel. Whether we like it or not, life is one continuous competitive examination.

The discussion highlighted persistent barriers—distance to courts, stigma, intimidation, delays & lack of child-friendly spaces—that continue to limit access to justice for women, girls & vulnerable groups. Digital solutions are no longer optional—they are essential.

Today we are all Ghanaians. In West Africa we are proud of our culture and tradition. We don’t conform to life style. We create and maintain our own.
