Hajia Gambo Sawaba





 

 

Sawaba, despite low education, coming from the northern part of Nigeria where women are least encouraged and their education neglected, and forced into early marriage at age 16, struggled through all these obstacles to emerge as a sweet, dynamic, independent political activist helping to educate many people.

Sawaba also came out of colonial repression and deformity refreshed and very human, and like most of her contemporaries, sowed the seed for the on-going emancipation of African women from the African tradition and the structures of the African nation-states.
