fefe ne fe (Beauty is beautiful ) by Ghanaian in Lagos
fefe ne fe (Beauty is beautiful )
The phrase is taken from an akan(Ghana) proverb; “fefe ne fe, se obaa tu amirika ne oso ni nufumua, eye fe, enye se ebe ti ato ntia”
This means that when a woman is running, she holds her breasts not because it would fall but because she’s a woman-thats what makes her beautiful.
Fefenefe is about what makes a woman who she is- our daily life, family, work, career, business and everything between.
