Meet Mrs Abiola Agbaje - Wife Of Lagos Pdp Gubernatorial Aspirant by omoakin111: 4:22pm On Dec 30, 2014 |
In an interview granted to Vivian Onyebukwa of The Sun Newspaper on December 27, 2014, Mrs Abiola Agbaje, wife of Jimi Agbaje, the Peoples Democratic Party’s gubernatorial flag bearer (PDP), Lagos State, speaks about growing up, marriage, society and women in politics, among others. The interview started out with Mrs Agbaje talking about her work supporting blind people – a passion that she picked up from her father who was on the council of the Nigerian Society of the Blind many years ago. A lawyer by profession – having worked for many years in the housing industry with Federal Mortgage Bank and Mutual Trust Savings and Loans before she voluntarily retired – Mrs Agbaje currently holds the role of Chairwoman of the Nigerian Society for the Blind. When asked what she would change if she had the opportunity to change something in society, she stated: “Our Values!”. “The loss of family values” she opined, “is one major factor responsible for the decline in society.” In her words: “We have lost our values. And those values are lost even from childhood. So, what we need to do is go back to the drawing board and retrieve those values we have lost and make sure that our children even from nursery imbibe them. As I find in Nigeria now, I always say it, wrong has become right. People do things now not even thinking about whether they are right or wrong, It is because everybody does it. It has become accepted and we are just going on like that. We need to change, that is the major problem we have. If I could say so, it still goes back to the family unit. If we don’t get the values in our family unit right, there is nothing we can pass on to the society.” On the question of assessing the level of women’s participation in politics, Mrs Agbaje states: “I don’t think any other government has given women as much participation as the Jonathan government. He has done a lot, but we are certainly not where we should be. There are so many areas where women are not at the level they should be. I believe we must always strive to get that gender equality as it will be so necessary to move the country forward.” On the question of what life has taught her, Mrs Agbaje says: “It has taught me that the material things in life, though important, are not the most important. Friendship, love, companionship, helping others are much more important than acquiring and amassing material things.” A good interview in its entirety and great insight into the values that keep the Agbaje’s household grounded.

If Jimi Agbaje is really what they say he is, I don't see why he'll be part of the fraud if a primary that brought him in. |
