The Pressure is getting Wesser: The Unpoken Battle between Nigerian Mothers and Unmarried Daughters

A Must-Read For Nigerian Mothers And Daughters

Delve into the red zone nobody talks about. A zone where a secret battle has been raging for centuries; a battle between mothers and their unmarried daughters. The battle is more cutthroat and hush-hush between the average Nigerian mother and her unmarried daughter. Lisa Okonye, like every other daughter of a Nigerian mother, has pondered on the possibility of the existence of a rule book somewhere in the world that gives Nigerian mothers the right to make their unmarried daughters' lives a living hell under the guise of finding a husband for them. Too many mother-daughter relationships have suffered because of this battle. As long as the unmarried daughter is supposedly "ripe" for marriage, Nigerian mothers are at full throttle to get their daughters into their husbands' houses. The question Lisa Okonye seeks to answer is, "why?"
Why is the pressure getting wesser?

For a long time, unmarried daughters have suffered in silence. This book was written to bring this secret battle to light.
