Goodwill Message to Mopamuro Women by Hon Moses Sunday David. 08.03.21.
Right from when the first man was created, the need to have a woman to make that creation a 'complete package' was birthed as God agreed to it that man can not live alone.
Women all over across ages and time, endeavors and carears have distinguished themselves as quintessential. Examples abounds of how the women folks has helped in changing the course of history to making our word a better place.
From Mary Slessor to Queen Amina of Zaria, From Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti to modern day women like Prof Dora Akunyili, Stella Adadevo, Angel Mertchel, Ngozi OkonjoIweala etc.
It is on this note that I see this day set aside as the International Women's Day as deserving and important not only to appreciate the women but to discuss the journey so far in terms of challenges and way forward.
The themed 'Women in leadership; achieving an equal future in a COVID-19 world' is very germane as the women and the world faces the challenges occasioned by the virus.
It is noteworthy that His Excellency Alhaji Yahaya Bello appreciates the importance of the women folks in nation building. He is the first Governor in Nigeria that is making concrete plan to put the women in their rightful place in leadership. It is my hope that the women will seize that opportunity to announce to the world again that they can.
In Mopamuro, the template is there with the Vice Chairperson, three elected Councillors including the Council leader and another woman as a Senior Special Adviser, we are following His Excellency Yahaya Bello on that glorious pedestal of allowing the women a space to showcase leadership.
Long live the women!
Long live Mopamuro!
Long live Kogi!
Long live Nigeria!
