A well-known Ghanaian Scholar, Dr. James Emmanuel Kwegyir-Aggrey (1875-1927), one of the greatest African educators of the 19th century, had a popular quote attributed to him, thus: “If you educate a man, you educate an individual. But if you educate a woman, you educate a nation.” It implies that empowering a woman economically and through education, often create rippling effects that positively affect communities in bigger and more endearing ways.
