Senate President Godswill Akpabio says Nigerian women are “a full package” and “special breed”.
Eseme Eyiboh, his spokesperson, quoted him as saying this in a statement on Friday to commemorate the 2024 International Women’s Day (IWD).
Akpabio said Nigerian women deserve all the respect, adding that he would continue to advocate for their improved welfare.
“We are very conscious that failure to invest in women is akin to killing development and destroying a nation,” he said.
The senate president said this year’s IWD theme — “Invest in Women, Accelerate Progress” — is in tandem with the position of the senate he leads.
“I wish to use the occasion of this year’s International Women’s Day to proudly celebrate our women — mothers and sisters,” he said.
“On behalf of my family, constituents, the senate, and the national assembly of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, I sincerely wish our women a peaceful and fruitful celebration.
“I must say you are the best and I sincerely appreciate you.”
