"How to Wear a Kitchen" witnesses Yemisi Aribisala as she ponders the small-minded commentary on the room best kept by woman as espoused on an international stage by Nigeria's head of state.

She argues that the kitchen and the other room is defined by patriarchal ethos; she advocates ways in which women can find social, cultural and strategic relevance.
