A blessing I got while in line of duty of fighting for the survival of the Shea nut trees, makes three years today. Join me and Mama in wishing LULU a happy birthday day. Her name LULU was got from South Sudan as they call the shea trees as LULU.

In Arabic, LULU also refers to pearl, something very precious.And this is exactly what the Shea trees are to the women in Africa. The trees are actually called the jewels and the women's gold.
