Veteran Nollywood filmmaker, Ego Boyo and other women will on June 23 celebrate the International Widows Day supporting widows through Widows Trust Fund. She disclosed this on social media.


"Tomorrow June 23rd is international widows day,  a day ratified by the UN as a day of action to address the "poverty and injustice faced by millions of widows and their dependents in many countries".

The International women's society will mark the day as part of our continued commitment to supporting widows through our Widows Trust Fund.

Join us and support widows in our communities who live in poverty and suffer  "from social stigmatization and economic deprivation, social stigmatization and economic deprivation purely because they have lost their husband's". She said.
