There Are Greater Women After Yaa Asantewaa – Vim Lady
With a post claiming that there are greater women after Yaa Asantewaa, broadcast journalist Afia Pokuaa popularly known as Vim Lady has generated controversy.
According to her, there have always been great women who have accomplished big things in the past, and there are even greater women today who are accomplishing even greater things.
According to her, the rise of Christianity and Islam marked the beginning of women’s marginalization in society, as they were pushed to the margins.
“Our culture has always projected women until we decided to inherit Christianity and Islam which relegated women to the background. In Ghanaian history WOMEN owned properties and controlled businesses, even FOUGHT for independence. Before Yaa Asantewaa there were great women after her there are even greater women. Just ended my history lessons with Dr. Serwaa,” Vim Lay posted on Facebook.
Her message elicited a range of responses from her followers, with some agreeing with her and others disagreeing.
Instead of stating their points in a civil manner, several of the opposing Facebook users decided to abuse her.
