peacengine:Let me give you an example. Two people are vying for presidency(MALE $FEMALE). The voters happened to be 80% women men 20% . You will agree with me that naturally the woman should win the election judging by the number of female voters, but that won't be the case because most of Nigerian women are very jealous of each other and hate each other. They will rather vote for the man and render their fellow woman a looser. WOMEN SHOULD FIRST OF ALL LEARN TO LOVE EACH AND STOP PULLING THEMSELVES DOWN IF THEY WANT MEN TO TAKE THEM SERIOUS. Naija women don't like each other. 1 Like 1 Share |

A woman that's up to the task does not need the Senate to tell her that she is up to the task. What do we stand to gain from the equality bill exactly? Forget what you heard even yankee sef no dey equal in terms of gender. I really don't see any form of discrimination against women in the first place. |

Let the women begin to act like they are men and I'll support them. There is nowhere in the world where women are treated same as men. Its not just about making laws but the willingness of those concerned to act accordingly. BTW the Senate no try anyways. 2 Likes |

Gender equality is always the first step towards smuggling in homosexuality as a legal act .Transexuals first then quickly followed by homosexuals. |

I've never seen a woman open an automobile passenger door for a man to enter, close it, then proceed to the driver's entrance to drive him to his destination, alight, come around to the passenger's side door, open the door for the man to alight. I've seen men do it for ladies every day, maybe I never 'waka' reach; has anyone seen one, pls update. 'Abeg' make us equal -- it's funny the gender that gets all the privileges, is the same gender that whines about everything. 2 cars in the house, the woman goes with the new one, while the man goes with the rickety old one, and if anything happens on the way, they abandon it and call us to come and get our property o . . .

amagunnerfan: Oga when you are quoting, you quote correctly. The man is the Lord of the woman only within the context of marriage. Or can you go and Lord another man's wife? We are talking of equal opportunities in the economic, educational and social space where if your daughter is a more intelligent engineer for instance, she should get the job and not be rejected over a man who might be less intelligent. Truth be told, how many men are even leading their families? Stories of drunken and lazy husbands and irresponsible fathers with baby mamas everywhere abounds, forcing women to go all out and provide for themselves and their kids to avoid starvation. Quote right and live right, you can not progress from holding down 60% of your population. 5 Likes |

One day, Nigeria women will be the determining factor of the stability of this nation. We will never beg for relevance, but a time will come wen my fellow women will wake up from their slumber and realise that with our population strength, we can make a thunderous and united voice that all will be forced to listen to. 2 Likes |

And dnt forget dat d gender of "every" unborn child is determined by d male gene. So in reality, males re d ones wu create baby males nd baby females. A woman is just a vessel used in accomplishing dat goal. It's just lyk a baker(male) who bakes flours(babies)... den put it in d oven(woman's womb) for minutes(9months).

I think the use of the terms "equality" and "equity" create misleading ideas in most commentators' minds. The Bill does not seek to change or alter the definition of manhood, it reaffirms values the ideal African woman should have. The Bill clearly states it effects the Constitution and our own Bill of Rights. Nobody wants raped wives and daughters. Yes men do get raped but dreadful criminals use rape as a weapon just as an AK 47 on women. The Bill reaffirms the right of the father over his daughters on the issue of marriage. The father's permission must be sought for. As regards employment, African women are not idle women. They contribute to their homes. I think Igbo women farm while the men hunt and trade, while Yoruba women trade while the men farm. The man can't do all the work, so Nigerian women should not be discriminated when working. Every property a married woman owns belongs to her husband as well. The husband has constructive ownership over his wife's property. If the woman is denied property rights, the man is similarly deprived. Upon her demise, property belongs fully to the man. Some traditions and customs are really archaic and horrifying. Human sacrifices and the sort. Good married women with legitimate children should be subjected to such conditions and treatment. It is not fair. The only problem the Bill has is it's potential conflict v with Sharia. Sharia as interpreted by Northern Nigerians. Almost every secular law conflicts with Sharia. CBN Act conflicts with Sharia loool!. Most people just thought it is a feminist crusade which it isn't. The Bill dwells on the basic. 2 Likes 1 Share |
