Roberta Edu: Why Women Need to Rethink Collaboration for Success

post-image

By Roberta Edu

As a feminist, entrepreneur, and tech expert, I have always advocated for women’s empowerment and equality. However, through my personal and professional experiences in Nigeria, I have observed a critical pattern—when it comes to success in business, politics, or life in general, strategic collaboration with men often yields more support and results than relying solely on women.

Many assume that my advocacy for women means I am against men, but the truth is, most of my key business relationships and life-changing connections have been with men.

  •  

  • Popular social media personality Very Dark Man, an Edo-born influencer known for his controversial takes on social issues, has ignited a heated debate after calling on Igbos to stage a protest over the revelations in a newly published book. His call has been met with widespread backlash, with many accusing him of opportunism, clout-chasing, and a lack of genuine concern for Igbo struggles.

    The controversy erupted after Very Dark Man released a video urging Igbos to take to the streets in response to the book’s findings, which he claimed warranted mass action. However, many within the Igbo community dismissed his call as reckless and uninformed, arguing that such a protest could lead to severe consequences given the current state of security in the South-East.
