Okigwe Women Laud Micro-Water Scheme

Published

on

Different women groups in communities in Okigwe area of Imo have expressed happiness over the impact of water facilities in the zone.
A cross section of women spoke on the improved livelihood of the community women through the water projects.
The women leader in Mbeke Community, Isiala Mbano local government area, Mrs Adamma Nwaukwa, expressed joy over the construction of a bore hole in the community’s health centre.
The project, which cost N911,000 was one of the three projects prioritised by the community; others are a health centre and rural electrification projects which cost N5.6 million and N3.5 million respectively.
“The borehole given to us by the community and social development programme is a very nice one because it has made a good impact on our health centre.
“Without water, and in this case a functional borehole, I don’t think any health centre can function properly.
“The women delivering here in the clinic can have clean water to drink and the community also benefit from using it; so we can say the borehole is a very nice project,’’ she said.
In Umuizi Umunkwo Community where a N3 million borehole was completed and made functional, Mrs Eze Eji, who spoke on behalf of the women, said that the availability of potable water  had improved women’s well-being in the community.
Other community women who spoke, said they would always prefer potable water, health centres and market stalls as their immediate needs when prioritising projects as these affected their homes and children directly.
“The boreholes are doing very well; what the government is doing is very nice; we prefer this water more that the unwholesome water we got from wells and streams.
“Before this water came, we fetched water anyhow; but now that government brought the ideas and we choose this project because we need it, we like it very well,’’ Mrs Chidinma Anyanele, a community woman, said.
Other micro-water projects handled by the community and social development programme in the state include those in Ibeme Amaise and Umuna communities, which cost N1.2 million and N3 million respectively.
Other community water projects are those in Umudike, Obiorodo and Obiaoha.

The Wise Woman

Published

The wise woman builds her home. Mothers are supposed to live exemplary lives. The roles of mothers in the building of the modern Christian home cannot be overemphasized.
The function of the mother is to help the man build the home. She is a helper. A helper to the husband when the man is not doing well. It is important for the wise woman to assist when the man is not able to meet up with the items needed in the home.
A wise woman needs to reference God first and then the husband. Also the wise woman should respect her husband.
Caring for her own children as well as others is very crucial.
Do not despise children from other mothers. Discipline the child who is going the wrong way.
Ensure family bonding, show love and don’t discriminate. Connection with children is very important, especially the females. Find out who is her friend. Also find out the kind of lives they live. Caution, counsel and guide so that they make good partners.
Teaching children the dos and donts should start from birth. Inculcate the word of God in them so that when they grow, will not depart from it.
From the Scripture, some women influenced their families positively. Virgin Mary influenced the world, she never destroyed herself hence she gave birth to Jesus Christ.
Elizabeth, despite her age, God blessed her as she waited patiently.
A wise should curb favouritism in the family and love children equally. Whether a child is your biological child or not, it is necessary to show love equally. Reprimanding the children should be the function of both man and wife.

There are many things the woman desires to keep the love on as far as marriage is concerned.
Women are blesssed with feminine abilities that can be used for good in husbands lives. With your abilities, you can create a marriage that will last till couples get old.
A woman needs
man that is honest,  trustworthy,  nice,  loving and financially stable.
There are no two ways about finance in marriage. No matter the level of love, if there is no reasonable finance,  it is always difficult to manage the home.
Referring to the Biblical belief in Genesis 3: “Your desire  shall be unto you…….. “
What this means is that whatever the woman desires in life shall be provided as far as she performs her role in her home. There are many things  the woman expects her husband to take care of.
A woman wants a husband that is not lazy,  at least helping to do one or two things when he is at home.
A man that is educated and intelligent so that they will transfer such traits to their children.
Knowing that there are traits that her husband has,  traits of taking care of people,  giving freely to people and caring for her family. She expects him to exhibit them.
A woman wants to love a husband that has family interest at heart. A man that spends time with his family,  remembering his family even as he is away from home.
No matter where he finds himself, he is not destracted by external influence. He returns home to his loved ones.
A woman should not antagonise her husband because of one error or the other. No matter the level of offence he may have committed, you still show some love.
According to the Scripture, it is with wisdom that a woman builds her home. As far as he rreturns home, you accept him as your own.
It is not as if the woman will not monitor her husband, but to certain limit.  Don’t be a monitoring spirit.  Don’t allow anything to take your joy.
Don’t loose trust in your husband. The idea of checking your husband’s phone should be discouraged. The more you check your husband and his phone, the more you loose your joy.
You can show some form of jealousy, but to an extent. Cooperation, respect and being honoured from time to time is what the woman desires.
The home should not be a battle ground for a woman and man.  A woman should be able to ask herself if the check on her husband will pay her any good.
Draw a line to a point where you checkmate your husband’s activities.
A woman wants a man that will love her and telling her you love her will be all she desires.
