Does the sex of a child determine how far the child will go in life? Is a male child more important than the female child? Given the same affection and care, will the girl-child thrive like her male counterpart? These and many more are the posers to be addressed on Episode 7 of the scintillating TV drama series, Professor Johnbull, sponsored by Globacom this Tuesday.
