Award winning Nollywood actress Stella Damasus is by no small means a real woman. The fact that she dedicates her time, fame, resources and passion to championing the course for the hopeless and downtrodden in society speaks volumes of her values. Not a few orphaned children, widowed women and violated girls and women has she given a voice and a hand through her numerous activities. I love this woman and I am certainly proud of her every bit of the way. And by the way, (I hate to sound patronising, but Asaba women really rocks).


ORPHANAGE BUSINESS BY STELLA DAMASUS[i][/i]

Forgive me if this article offends or affects you, I am just speaking from the heart, thoughts, experience and research. Phew! Since that is settled, let me proceed into this world of business which has become very lucrative, though this side of it is being swept under the carpet.
I remember vividly a few years ago during Christmas, my kids and I were at home. Later that day, my first daughter walked up to me and asked why we were home just eating, watching movies, praying and playing dress up as usual. I told her that we had fun the previous day and the day before that, so I wondered what she wanted. She stylishly reminded me that most of her cousins had travelled, others were at a resort, some friends were at the park, some have gone swimming and the list was long. I turned and told her that she should be grateful that she has a roof over her head, she has more than enough to eat and drink, she had family and a parent who loves her to bits. I saw the look on her face and an idea popped up in my head. You see, I learnt that with children, words don’t work for them all the time, they do better with pictures and experiences.
