Is Integrating Women Into National Politics A Mistake


In recent years. Precisely this President Jonathan administration that will elapse on May 29, seems to Integrate » women largely, into the country's politics.

Since Nigeria's political powers have been abused by men. One will think that the presence of women in politics will erode certain corrupt acts but from this points I'm about to state. I think the situation is even worsening with the women there.

Take Ngozi Okonjo Iweala » and our pretty lady Diezani Madueke » , the minister of Finance and minister of Petroleum respectively. How are they showing their accountability in the country's affairs? By being controversial?

also, the report of the Executive Secretary of the National Pension Commission (PenCom). Whose appointment as the secretary is expired, but she manipulated the system and got herself re-appointed as the Executive Secretary of the Organisation.

Women can handle affairs well, but I don't think they can handle much pressure if they are placed in delicate positions like the ones Madueke and Ngozi Okonjo Iweala are placed.

They are citizens just like you, giving them opportunities to serve the country on a national level should not be seen as going out of your way to give them special priviledges or something you do out of immense consideration or generousity of spirit.

Even the controversial Iweala has been the best finance minister Nigeria has had since return to democracy. As long as they are qualified and capable of doing the job the real question should be integrity and ability.
