Tallen spoke on Thursday at an event marking the 2022 International
Women’s Day, organised by the Abuja Chamber of Commerce and
Industry, ACCI.
It would be recalled that the National Assembly rejected bills seeking to
give women more opportunities in leadership and governance.
Following the rejection of the bills, protests have been held in parts of
the country – including at the National Assembly – with women
demanding gender inclusion.
Consequently, the House of Reps rescinded their decision on three of the
gender bills.
Speaking during the event, Tallen called for concerted efforts to fight
gender inequality in Nigeria, saying it was not a mistake that God
created both genders to complement each other.
The minister also urged the National Assembly to reconsider the gender
bills and appealed to women to always support their partners and also
urged the men to ensure that their wives are always happy.
This, according to her, will guarantee a happy home, society, and a
prosperous Nigeria.
