JAGUNJAGUN had loads of lessons if you are paying attention. Asides telling us how the rich make use of the poor as puppets, and how political leaders take delight in promising youths all for the gain of using them, and most times against one another, for their own benefit reasons while their previous ones are kept, And that family sometime isn’t define by the people you share your name and bloodline with, But sometimes people who truly love, care, support and want to see you grow. Knowing that even if your light shines better than theirs later, the joy would be being proud to be part of the source of the brightness.
But most importantly to me, Jagunjagun talks about the power of the supposedly known to be weak and also underrated gender in society.
The gender that does the most, but is seen the less.
The gender is said to be behind every successful man but still painted as the weaker beings and being incapacitated in some parts of society. The only gender that the creator gave the key to the door through which every and any human can come to the this world.
They do the most for free out of love, and all their efforts, pain, and struggles through it all earns no accolades, because the society see it as “That’s their responsibility and what they are made to do. Make the king, not try to be one.”
I hope today, JAGUNJAGUN reminds the world again about the struggles and timeless sacrifice of this gender.
And how the need to appreciate, love, care, encourage, commend and celebrate them cannot be overemphasised.
