Senate President Bukola Saraki has expressed recommitment to push for more female participation in the economic and political processes of the nation.
The Senate President in a statement to mark International Women’s Day 2018 said women who have played and continue to play their part in the development of the country are worth celebrating.
“Today, on International Women’s Day (#IWD2018), I join the world to celebrate our mothers, our sisters, our daughters, our colleagues and our friends who wake up each day and work to make the world a better place.
“In particular, today, I celebrate those women, who have played, and continue to play their part in the development of our country — in every sector, in every way, and at every point in our young, but significant history.
“As a father to three young women; a husband to a lovely, supportive, and charismatic wife; a colleague to a few but effective legislators; and a son — everyday, I witness firsthand the strength and resilience of women. I see their impact in all areas of human endeavor, and testify to their resilience, their bravery, and their ability to get things done.
“Therefore, today, I join the world to #PressForProgress, and I recommit to pushing for more female participation in the economic and political processes of our nation,” he stated.
