The importance of Womanhood in Nation Building is one feature that can never be undermined, reasons why the United Nations 35% Affirmative Role for Women in Political Offices is taking a splendid role in the Nigerian Democracy as President Goodluck Jonathan has remained Faithful In the realization of this feat through the appointment of Women into public offices and also through the Empowerment of Women to contest Elective positions in the Nation with their Male Counterparts.
As the Nation marks its 100 Years of Nation-Hood it remains crucial and all important to highlight the role of Women in the Unity and Growth of Nigeria despite our Diversity in Cultural and Religious beliefs. The list of Nigerian Women who have thrived both Publicly and Privately may seem innumerable as the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs deem if fit to Honor 100 Nigerian Women in commemoration of the Centenary Celebrations.
It was a Heroic moment and event as memories of Women who fought for our Nationhood was made afresh, but rather too UNFORTUNATE missing the likes of Dr. Dora Akunyili the Former Director General of NAFDAC who gallantry set a pace for Nigeria in fight against the importation and production of Fake and Sub-Standard Drugs which has posed an alarming threat to the Health of many Nigerians in the past decades thus making Nigerian an Hub for Adulterated goods Globally.
The efforts of Dr. Akunyili was farfetched beyond the tenacity of NAFDAC as she Pioneered the REBRANDING NIGERIA Project to the World as GOOD PEOPLE, GREAT NATION and effort that was lauded Globally which earned Nigeria her rightful place in the Heart of many Nations.
DORA'S Heroic efforts are too obvious to be thrashed, despite the modalities involved in the Selection Dr. Akunyili still stands out as Rare Gem in Womanhood.
It is absolutely unspeakable for us to allow Political interest and Vendetta to thrive in times like this. For this no doubt is a clear Abberation and Deviation of the 35% Women Affirmative Power as orchestrated by the Jonathan led Government.
GOOD PEOPLE, GREAT NATION... WHICH WAY NIGERIA???
MOA…
