More pics

I wanted to post this picture, because this woman just became our regional mayor. She's from my village, but has a high standing job at the national phone service company. Anyway she's a great example of female empowerment here in Africa. Since she entered office she's already campagned to bring in NGO's to help in her region. Which is so much more than her predecessor did in his 10 years as mayor. He never did anything for his region and finally the people got sick of him. She has also just started the construction of a new maternity for the CSPS of To. Something that was desperately needed when the previous one fell down during the rainy season, like mine did, 3 years ago. She's doing so much for her community and the people are responding and working with her. It's really nice to see. She's never need any of my help and everything she's done, she's done by herself. She's great, I really admire her resiliency.
