They both grew up with their grandparents. No doubt, their grandparents instilled Igbo values in them.

No doubt, this helped make them become:

I.Academic giants.

2.Courageous amazons, and

3.Women whose courage saved the nation in critical times.

The lesson to parents is this: No matter how ‘old fashioned’ your parents may be, it may be wise to send your children to visit them regularly.

Both women are great, thanks to the Igbo values that were inculcated in them, thanks to the wizened Igbo elders, who raised them.

Yeah, because we cannot discount the good qualities instilled in them by their Igbo parents. They are both intelligent women and from the same ethnic group

@ dayokanu,
Akunyili performed great service for the country when many men couldn't.
No dayokanu. She isn't stained. She is great.
