What does power mean to you? Authority, leadership and the ability to assert oneself. What do you think makes someone powerful? I consider a person powerful if they have a good character, are just, defend the poor, are rich and know a lot about politics, religion and administration. A powerful person should also be able to treat people well. Who takes the decisions in your household? I do, of course, I’m the husband! The husband must take care of the family’s peace and security. It’s his job to ensure that the family stays together, that the children are well brought up and that everyone shows mutual respect. He gives advice, but doesn’t force or punish anyone. Was there ever a situation in your life when you felt powerless? Yes, there was. I was born in Niger and went to college in Nigeria where I found work after taking my degree. Nigeria became my home. But after a change of government I, as a foreigner, was no longer allowed to work and earn money there. When our village was attacked by armed groups one day, I returned to Niger. CARE helped me to set up a new business here. What decisions can the children in your household take? My children can always tell me their opinions and their wishes. Their opinion is important to me and I always take it into account. If they don’t like one of my decisions I have to think again. I would never force one of my children to do something they don’t want to. What would you do if you had absolute power over your household, your community and your country? If I had absolute power over everything and everyone, I would work for more social justice and freedom. I would always try to be fair and to ensure that everyone has equal rights. But I would also make sure that everyone did their duty in the community. Who should have more power in the world and why, in your opinion? People who are honest and of good character. People who care for others, defend the weak and are a model for everyone else. People like that should have more power. Why? To guarantee social justice, equal rights and equal opportunities and so that everyone can live a better life without discrimination or exclusion.

If the husband or children do something wrong, the wives can criticize them and give them advice. The wives are also responsible for planning everyday life and the household. They also have the power to decide how to use their money and gifts from their parents or friends. CARE affair N o. 11 — Power 90
