Esther Okoye, makes a donation to the University of Port Harcourt.


Join the next generation women was warmly received yesterday, at the center for Conflict and Gender studies, Uniport. In our discussion, the director for Conflict and Gender Studies, Uniport, Dr. Fidelis Allen, recognizes the need for the society to adjust those cultural and customary values that deter women's sustenance in the career environments. 

Join the next generation women blames gender inequality on customary values which were embedded in the career environments, thereby creating conflicts against women's ability to sustain their careers. Through the book, i intend to sensitize the female gender  on how to include themselves in the career world, adapt, grow and be stable in careers. This is in the midst of competitive nature of the career environments as well as those practices that create gender-sensitive constraints to women in careers. 

I donated Join the next Generation women to the Institution because, the Center for Conflict and Gender studies Uniport would be a most relevant means for sensitizing the female gender as well as the society on gender issues as it relates to women in careers.  The University of Port Harcourt center for Conflict and Gender Studies addresses developmental challenges in the Nigerian society where many citizens suffer security threats which results from violent conflicts, poverty, illiteracy, human trafficking and gender inequality.

I also intend to liaise with many other similar institutions in Nigeria and other challenged African countries to continue this sensitization.
