YOUNG AFRICAN LEADERS SUMMIT 2019: COMFORT OLAFARE REPRESENTS NIGERIA IN ACCRA, GHANA, URGES AFRICAN WOMEN TO CHANNEL THEIR STRENGTH ON CAPACITY BUILDING.

An Igbogbo indigene of Lagos State, Nigeria, Hon Comfort Oladunni Olafare, has called women in Africa to love one another and invest their strength on capacity building. She made this statement in Accra, Ghana, on Saturday, November 23, 2019, during the 2019 Young African Leaders Summit. 

According to her, "no news that our women fight for Gender Equality but
Enough of fighting for Gender inequality, why not let's channel our strength on Women capacity building.

"If Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti of Nigeria could be a force to be reckoned with in the 90's, Njeri Rionge of Kenya to be recognized both home and abroad, Divine Ndhlukula of Zimbabwe, Salwa Akhannouch of Morocco, Hajia Bola Shagaya of Nigeria, why should the 21st century women feel fighting for gender is Paramount to capacity building?

"Men tend to support each other, believe in one another and don't indulge in backbiting which has earned them landmark achievements and good representation. Is that the case in women's world?

"In our world (women), we tend to bring one another down by not giving ultimate support, backbiting, beefing, gossiping, envying, et al yet we consider gender inequality as our major problem.

"Men tend to work more with competent women, groomed and grounded women while the same sex do otherwise but hide under the umbrella of gender inequality.

"We have the largest number of gender(female) in the world's population but we are yet to produce Female Governors, President, have more of women in leadership positions. Isn't this shameful?

"Let's engage women, bring women together, change their mindset/Orientation towards life, give quality education, groom and nurture women for self-actualization so as to become a force to be reckoned with from the grassroot, community and the nation at large.

She further urged women of Africa to learn how to embrace one another. "Let WOMEN SUPPORT WOMEN (WSW) Let's display genuine love while we build one another," she added.
