A true story - Written by Femi Fani Kayode

Another piece written by former Nigerian minister, Femi Fani Kayode. Enjoy below...

The best stories are usually the true ones. The following story is not only true but it is also revealing and remarkable. Please fasten your seatbelts, sit back and patiently read it. You never know, you may learn something from it. I certainly did. Here we go.T
Someone asked me the other day where I got the inspiration to write my poem titled "The Power of a Woman". I told him that it came from the Spirit of God and that I also drew on so many experiences that I had had with women over the last 53 years of my life and the experiences of many of my male friends too. All in all the poem, in my view, far from being an attack on womanhood was in fact very charitable to them and confirmed the view, held by many, that they are extremely complex beings that need to be treated with tender love and care at all times.
