For my first byline as a journalist, I wrote about women's contributions to the Biafran war and the war on terrorism in the Northeast, and how their labour is often diminished or erased from official and popular accounts of history. Please read & share.

*Emasculated* is such an interesting word because there's no female equivalent. Only a man can be robbed of something so arbitrary and societally-constructed as his masculinity.
