And may I add, some of her most meaningful work, to me, is that she led production for Gullah Gullah Island and held consulting and writing roles across multiple generations of children’s television. She is a Black history icon. She is a women’s history icon.

I have never come across a kid that suffered so much like Ochanya.
Sh returns from school 2pm.
Victor returns home by 3 and then forces himself on her.
He continued raping her for months.
Then one day, the Father came home and caught his son raping the innocent girl with tears in her eyes.
Instead of stopping his son in his early 20, he pushed the son away from her, and climbed the innocent girl.
The next day, the man returned home very early from work to wait for the girl.
Immediately she arrived from school, he began to rape her. His son walked in, and took turn.
It continued for years.
Father and son raping a girl of eight years turn by turn, year after year—tell me something more cruel and barbaric.
The little girl from 8 years became 10, and became very sick.
The aunty, Winifred's mum found out, but she kept shut. When the doctor's test results came out, she hid the results.
Yes, she's an accomplice.
At the early stage of discovering that Ochanya was sick, it would have been easier to treat, but she deprived her treatment.
While the girl was sick, it didn't stop Winifred's Father and brother from still raping her.
For five years, nobody in the family reported the case to the police.
It was Ochanya that opened up when she was already dying, but Mr. Andrew like a Nigerian politician still fought his way through the case.
Ochanya finally d!ed at 13, guess what! Winifred's Father influenced the doctor's autopsy.
That's how heartless humans can be.
Winfred is living her career. Victor, the rapist is living his dream career. The rapist-father is still a lecturer teaching teenagers. (Imagine a rapist among teenagers).
But they deprived Ochanya her dream of becoming a medica doctor.
Now look at the smile on Victor's face, but another family would weep at the thought of his actions.
How do they sleep in that home knowing that they are all rapists, murderers and accomplices?
Until Justice is served, we remain Ochanya's voice.
Ochanya deserves justice.
Silence in the face of injustice is INJUSTICE—and evil.
