Hungry woman bares breast at court premises in Lagos

Culled from Punch
In a desperate attempt to draw attention to her misfortune, Esther Odozi, 21, bared her breasts on Monday on the premises of Ikeja Magistrate’s Court as she protested against hunger that was “killing her and the five children” she left back home in Agbor Owanta, Delta State.
Odozi laid half-naked on a road in the court shouting, “Hunger, hunger. Government must do something today. I have not received anything from the plenty crude oil money government is spending in our state. Nigerians are wicked.”
She impeded movement on the premises. Passersby were astonished. One of them, who did not state her name but said she was a lawyer, told our correspondent that Odozi abused the “temple of womanhood.”

Odozi shunned passersby who shouted at her to cover herself as she rolled on the ground. She revealed wounds on her left leg and the right side of her hips; she said she was hit by a car. She refused a N500 given to her by a passerby, saying, “I don’t want your money. I want Fashola to give me N200, 000.”

When our correspondent approached her, she said, “After confronting serious hardship in my state, I was advised by an official of Human Rights Commission in Delta to go to Human Rights Commission in Abuja. I also went to Police Headquarters and NAPTIP (National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons) in Abuja. They all told me to go to Lagos; they said that is where I could get help.”

“My husband, Donald Ogbaja, was a retired policeman before he died of hunger. He married me when I was 17. I bore five children, including twins for him.”

Odozi said she tried to survive on her own by cultivating some crops. She, however, said she was hit by a car and had been hindered by her injury to continue working on her farm.

She said, “I will not leave this court without seeing N200,000 to start business. I want to sell melon and garri. Tell Emmanuel Uduaghan, the governor of my state, and the Federal Government to do something about my condition. They must give me part of the petrol money. I must take care of my five children.”

When she was asked that as a young woman, didn’t she feel ashamed to bare her breast? She answered, “I don’t have anything and I don’t have anything to hide anymore.”

All I feel is pity for her, those saying she should go and work should try be in her shoes, afterall I read comments of some LIBers bragging about their expensive hand bags. The poverty is severe in Nigeria and there is no social welfare for the citizens.So consider her situation before you judge or criticize.

Sometimes people talk like idiots. At her age 5 abi 7 children, is it d politicians, govts. or lagosians dat impregnated her? D husband is dead, fine. But what is d connection? She said d husband died of hunger and it was in d middle of hunger dat she opened her legs to get pregnant. All of u heaping curses on people how much can u donate for her? Is it not money she used for transport wandering around how many states? Does dat make sense? As for me, i don't pity her, it is only d kids dat she brought into dis world to suffer dat i pity. Bcos she does not deserve it. She is supposed to be sued and jailed for pikins abuse. If u no fit train pikin, no open leg. People ar talking anyhow about how the country is d cause of her problem. D people wey say dem dey drive pass see am and d one wey use leg, if una dey contribute #5 since morning, e for don pass 200k.

You lot shouldn't be too quick to judge the lady. Have you considered her age? plus how old she was when she got married. I'm not saying her approach was right but she probably has no one to turn to. She probably didn't complete her secondary education. Who's gonna offer her a job? I think the Nigerian government has failed its youths, there ought to be some provision of some sort for the citizens especially the youths. She needs money to start up a business so she can fend for the kids, if you ask me, I think she's better than some young women out there who has nothing to do with the youths other than waste it clubbing and sleeping around.

I'm an agbor girl and seriously where I come from, we are strong. No matter how poor you are, U should atleast have one piece of farmland. Where are her family members and inlaws! Ika people are not known for dragging property of a late brother or driving a late brother's wife and kids away! She should go back to the village or better still go and meet Uduaghan! Fashola or lagos state has no business with her! Charity begins @ home,Sen. Okowa is there, Hon. Doris uboh, Jim Ovia, Dr. Festus Okubor, hon. Cairo Ojugbo, chief Nduka obaigbena, hon. Nduka irabor. These are Ika people, she should go and do dis if she really feels govt.owes her anyfin. I'm 20yrs old and graduating this year, sad to see someone my age grade already a mother of 5. Most of these ladies get pregnant at a young age, abandon school and feel marriage is the height! Pls bfor u insult me or preach to me about sympathy, I'm an agbor girl so u no like my person reach me. Just that truth be told, d parents that "married" her off @ age 17 should fend for her kids!

This woman has every right to have done what she did. She is starving while the leaders are milking of our Lands. Have any of your FOOLS read about the Aba women's riot? It started with just one woman and then there were about 10,000 sitting and singing.
Most of you are telling her to get a job, have you asked if she can bend to till the soil after her accident? Her husband was a police office till he died, shouldn't she be taken care of?

She has a problem. How can travel from Delta state to Lagos to come display your shameful and ignorant attitude. You even went to Abuja. Are you sick and insane. That transport money, you should have use it start small petty business maybe selling fruits and vegetables. She is lazy to me because that statement of yours " of not collecting crude oil money" shows how daft, greedy and ignorant you are. Even in Lagos, you can't roam there for 24hrs without getting a job to feed your mouth alone. Also, there are govt youth empowerment agency to enroll in for free. Fashola own is for everyone. "Na we get Lagos". Don't be a lazy boom as my Yoruba people say and faith based. Strive and strive is the word. After subsidy, people think things will be hard as in economic crash, but "we still dey live". Nigeria will be better as we unite to do it right and appoint credible leaders to lead us for all and not for some greedy evil goats among us. God bless Nigeria. Amin

This is no lie atalk as I have seen this lady live and direct in my area in Asokoro Abuja pressing out milk from her breast and rolling on the road screaming infront of Catholic Church of Assumption Asokoro Abuja. The story she gave was that her baby is dead that her husband a police man killed the baby. That she was actually breast feeding the baby while the baby was taken away from her and killed that's the reason for her pressing her breast milk out for people to know she is a nursing mother. Her is complicated tho

If dis woman had not gone naked,tell me who would have listen to her plea? Nobody. We live in a cruel society where no one is his/her neighbor's keeper. I fear for the generations unborn if nothing is done to to curb many and more insanity caused by our corrupted leaders and gullible Nigerians. I know millions of pple are passing though what this woman is passing through but do not know how to pass their messages across. Her measure may not look decent but one thing is that it was effective.if she had not done that, you and me will not be here commenting and I am sure many Nigerians will come to her aid.

You r right. On d other hand, not having a means to become educated does not excuse entering into marriage. That is looking for problem to solve a problem. She is only worse off for it. Even if her husband were still living, they will still not be living a balanced life. If u don't have a means of education, learn a trade, do something within your level but pls don't run into a poverty stricken marriage. Worst case scenario, look for some rich man if u must marry.

So in 4years this lady gave birth to 5 children and her husband died of hunger, that's the part I don't understand....women in the village keep giving birth to children they can take care of, hoping to send off to rich people's houses to become house boys or girls...I don't blame this woman for coming to display, she was definitely frustrated but I don't understand her justification for wanting fashola to give her 200,000, she even rejected the 500naira given to her....m still amazed 5kids in 4 years yet you know you are struggling...just doesn't make sense

I am quite disappointed at some of the comments on this story. Did we all read the same story? This 'girl' was barely a woman at 17 when she was married off and if at 21years, she already has 5 kids including a set of twins, all her kids are below 4 years old. She didn't have the privilege of going to school or even learning a trade so what JOB is she going to get? Who's going to babysit her 5 toddlers? Or do you think she has funds to 'drop them off' at school? Let's read between the lines when we post comments please...http://tinyurl.com/nnbtorn

Fashola needs to be careful with these south south people. First they rented a dilapidated bldg to terrorist, then they sent a married woman to a south west gov and now they sent a destitute woman to Lagos to demand #200,000. They are trying to see how Fashola would handle this situation. This is all politics. They are nervous about Fashola. They have nothing to show for their time in govt. They've achieved nothing and want to destroy and make fun of the person that has been successful. This woman left DElta went to Abuja and they told her to go to Lagos. She came from an oil rich south south. Why can't they give d money. politics.

My only prayer is that one day GOD would come and take d lives of all those who are stealing nigerias money. I feel bad for this woman. Nigeria has a country has a high population of poor people and its because of this that people are stealing and kidnapping people. No one should judge this womab cause u dont know what it takes to get to the point of having no self dignity. Without help someone like her can be pushed to doing something very harmful to the society. Where do u think all these boko haram members are coming from. They are those who feel they have nothng. The state cant take care of them and they cant for themselves so when some one comes to offer them chicken change to blow somewhere up. They cant help but comply. People are suffering in this country o. Because u have ac in your house doesn't mean someone else isnt sleeping in an uncompleted building so pls dont judge. What u can do is pray that u dont ever get to that point in life. Fashola that Is steady taking from lagosians especially the rich. Where is all d money going. Anyways I know that whatever one sows they will reap so here and jonathan and all the other thieves would surely reap the fuits of their labour

I wonder if the governent is doing enough in terms of family planning campaigning . It is ashame dat a young woman should allow herself get into a situation were she just gives birth without thinking about the consequences . Baring her breast and stripping herself naked is what landed her with 5 hungry mouths. She has obviously not learnt her lesson. Anyway government can endorse her and use her images in new family planning campaign. This will act as a good deterrent for irresponsible couples who just breed with no plans on how to cater for their responsibilities

Anonymous said...

But why Breed like a rat if you don't have any plans to feed them. This is the idiot mentality of Nigerians . Then they go knocking on relatives doors to feed them. People that stop after 1 or 2 kids are not foolish or infertile they just want to give quality to the few they have. I get so angry when people can not take responsibility for their actions. Yes poor woman. She was poor before she started having these children did she think she would born the messiah then her situation would change. I don't feel sorry for her because she's making it look like its others people's fault. Her attitude stinks. Men please bless your wife's with family planning . If your situation can not support a large family please for every ones sake plan a small family. Children don't deserve to suffer for the foolishness of their parents.

Some common sense at last. Poverty is not to blame it is pure ignorance. Common sense is so because you don't have to pay for it. If you can not feed yourself why bring several children into the equation. Why, because you can have children what about watching them suffer is that a right too.?. As a tax payer living abroad it pisses me off when these Somalians breed like dogs and expect me to foot the bill for them.

Oh oh how sorry and pathetic and all that. Linda please open a fund line so that all Her supporters can raise some cash for her. In fact why no open a direct debit mandate for her so that every month we can all pay 10% no 20% no I mean 50% of our income for the rest of her life. That will be a very very good idea maybe she can breed some more children as well infact open a baby making factory . Nonsense. !!

Few hard facts
1: Nigeria is a poor hard country.no welfare
System.
2: rich are getting richer and poor even poorer.
3. We are in control of our own lives.
4. Poverty is horrible. It hurts to see a child die of poverty.
5. Solution , based on all these facts and especially point 3. Plan your family well. It is you the parents that the child sees when it is suffering and it is you they blame, not some faceless person called government .my father had 11 of us . He was a poor soldier. We were palmed off to different relatives as glorified house helps. I was lucky as a son to be with a kind uncle who let me go to afternoon school, after doing all the chores. As soon as I got a job and one room I inherited 5 of my younger siblings to train. It was a hard life but we loved each other. When I saw the last one off. I vowed to myself never to have more than 1 child. When you truly know poverty you do not introduce children to it never. I never really got on with my father. I blame him for our predicament .

Nigeria is still a young country compared to all the developed countries. In the mean time we have to cut our clothe according to the clothe. There is no need making a bad situation worse. Before this country will change the attitude of people have got to change. Blame culture has never helped to develop a country , look at history. From most of these comments I can see that Nigeria is still a long way from civilisation. A famous politician once said don't ask what your country can do for you, the question is what can you do for your country. Ghana that little island is taking giant strides to becoming the first developed country in Africa, check out the attitude of the people.
