Don't ignore the boy child - Molokome

She said this yesterday at a media briefing and panel discussion to launch this year's commemoration of the International Women's Day. The day is celebrated yearly on March 8, and will this year be commemorated in Serule, Central District.

Molokomme said efforts to "connect girls and inspire them for the future" should not happen without the boy child. She admitted that there have been historical imbalances from the traditional socialisation of boys and girls under which the boy child was socialised to be more economically empowered.However, the pioneer gender activist warned against any attempts at tinkering with the status quo.
