I Was Called ‘Dustbin Lady’ – Amina Mohammed Reveals Why by FlirtyGist: 4:21am On Sep 13, 2018

Amina Mohammed, the deputy secretary-general of the United Nations (UN), has said that when she was appointed minister of environment in Nigeria, she was seen as the dustbin lady.

According to her, people did not see the real value of her office.

She said this on Wednesday while speaking at the International Monetary (IMF) and the UN working together conversation with Christine Lagarde, the managing director of the Internatoonal Monetary Fund, IMF.

“I have to tell you, when I went back to Nigeria as minister of environment, my state was saying, it was environment they gave you? that is the dustbin lady. They did not even get that environment was broader than just waste disposal,” she told Lagarde and a room full of development experts.

She said climate change is important, so is gender parity and inclusion for youths.

Mohammed also stated that “the average age of entry into the United Nations is 45”, adding that the UN is working hard to change this, and include young people in its working process.

The mother of six further spoke about every of the 17 goals that make up the Sustainable Development Goals, SDGs, as her children, saying all were equally important for the future of the world.

This woman has been using scope to expose Buhari administration's incomprtence. Rememeber she served as a chairperson of the MDG's under GEJ. she has tasted the two sides and definitely knows who has done with better or worse.

Just imagine Buhari's men think environment is all about dustbin, forgetting all other ministries depend on her ministry. How pathetic

This woman must have been a very responsible woman unlike today's so-called slay queens/'feminists' who can hardly take care of themselves let alone children.

God bless women like these.

How can she market a bad product that thinks managing the environment is all about dustbin, she needed to tell the truth, so any investors will understand the real situation.

She don't need to say that. There are some statement(s) that are better left unsaid.

What kind of reasoning do we get on nairaland these days? Must everything be politicized or ‘buharised’?

The lady only referred to the reaction of the people in her state to buttress her argument that people don’t generally appreciate or have regard for matters relating to environment. They don’t therefore see the environment ministry as important enough for their representative in the federal executive council when there are other ‘juicy’ posts.

Truth be told, how many Nigerians (even elites) appreciate the importance of environmental issues? Tell a professor not to dump his used car battery anyhow, he will tell you to come and swallow it. Now tell a typist that the used toners should be sent back to recycling plant because it can degrade environment.

Even President Trump regards climate change as a hoax hence his determination to unwind all measures previously taken to address environmental degradation.

Oga, how is she de-marketing her community by what she said?

Is this to say everyone commenting on this topic up there didn't read the article or read but just didn't understand?

When the leader and focal point of a nation has demarketed the country to bits to the foriegn press and in foreign lands— what other kind of de-marketing can be done again?
