Answer:
Me: Good morning Madam. It is our greatest honour and privilege to have such a great person like you in our school. We feel so proud of you.
Wangari Maathai: Oh my, thank you so much.
Me: What brings you to India Madam?
Wangari Maathai: India has always been the country of my dreams. Ever since I read about the ‘Chipko Movement’ I decided I must visit this amazing country. It has as rich a flora and fauna like my Africa.
Me: you have achieved such great feats in humanity. What has given you the energy?
Wangari Maathai: Being born a woman and watching my mother, grandmother, aunty work so hard taught me the lesson of hardship and struggle. From them I derived the energy to work on and fight for justice. I am also a great admirer of Nelson Mandela. His patience and tolerance gave me the inspiration and endurance.
Me: why did you give away your Nobel Prize money.
Wangari Maathai: Just as your Nobel Laureates Rabindranath Tagore and Mother Teresa had a dream and they fulfilled their dream with the money. I too accomplished my dream with the Nobel Prize money.
Me: Thank you so much for being here and sharing your valuable time with us.
Wangari Maathai: Thank you.
