In conservative and/or religious African societies, many people find feminism controversial. Some religious scriptures have verses that ratify gender roles and imply that men and women are not equal. As a result, some people believe that feminism is incompatible with religion.
In this episode, we speak to two Nigerian women who are religious and feminist, and we explore how they were able to reconcile these two seemingly opposite ideologies.
