Nigerian actress and comedian Etinosa Idemudia has stated that there are more relevant things to fight for than free menstrual pads for girls.
The comedian took her Instagram story to share her opinion, noting that she will rather fight for free Ventolin inhalers than fight for free menstrual pad on the premises that nobody asked to be asthmatic.
Stating that Asthma kills, the mother of one revealed that she is writing her opinion down as she is clinching to her inhaler, which she describes as ‘ritualist expensive’.
Lamenting that the price of inhalers keeps increasing on a daily basis, Etinosa noted that no one has ever died of blood, adding that people should also fight for free food, rather than free sanitary towels.
“There are more relevant things to fight for than Free Menstrual Pads for girls. No offense but i would rather fight for FREE VENTOLIN INHALERS than fight for free Menstrual pads using the same premise-nobody asked to be asthmatic. While Asthma kills, I have never seen anyone die from blood stain. I write this clutching my now ritualist-expensive inhaler in my hand; and the price keeps increasing daily. Yea, fight for free food too“, she wrote.
The lady’s opinion has however generated several comments and reactions from many social media users. An Instagram user with the handle @kikieebakes said: But nobody stopped you from fighting for your own thing na! Why put another person’s fight down. Just the way some fight for cancer and some fight for malaria. You shouldn’t undermine anyone’s fight. In the end we all want the world to be a better place. So contribute just how you can.
Another user with the name Kehinde Allison said: Which kain mumu talk be this? I’m asthmatic but I’d rather fight for free pads than fight for free inhalers.
