Description
In this programme we meet three very different ladies who typify the new trend: Esther Ocloo, a notably successful businesswoman and owner of a food processing industry; Justice Jiagge, a Supreme Court Judge and one of the authors of the UN Declaration on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women; and Nana Okosampa VI, the hereditary Chief of the Community of Atwia.
