Meanwhile, it was earlier reported that a Nigerian lady, Tolulope Adeleke-Aire, was changing the norm and teaching men things the traditional society would not expect of them.
She broke the cultural barrier by teaching men how to bathe and care for their babies without having to leave everything to the mothers.
The nurse organised a baby bathing session for men under a canopy, using toys as examples. Tolu also showed them how to change a kid’s diapers and oil their head like a nursing mother would do.
