Meet Jide
Jide is a male nurse married to Fola in his mid-fifties and a devout churchgoer. This monologue focuses on the lasting friendship between Jide and Pa Olu who is a respected elder in the Nigerian community. Jide faces the reluctance of the church community to listen to him as a health care professional about the impact that COVID is having and the importance of vaccination. His old friend and father figure Pa Olu finally supports Jide to be heard by his community.
