After reading comments on this thread I'll say ladies shudnt waste their breath on the men; coz we failed on this one. How long are we gonna keep blaming the men, the likes of Remi, Stella, Abike and co are extremely useless and foolish. Have never met people dt slow before. You mean they cudnt rally women and support d bill, all they knw is how to embezzle money and all. How are the men gonna take us seriously if we don't put more effort on it. Educate every man in ur life concerning d bill coz am sure none of d myopic males commenting didn't read what d bill is all abt. They're just blabbing abt a woman nt collecting their money. How much una get sef for dis forum

Women need to do regroup, re-strategize and also kick dose useless women in d senate out! My 2kobo

go read about your Quran before you start shouting.


if I start explaining to you, you won't still understand so what's the need?

I stand with the senate on this oo. Call me misogynist, call me sexist. I don't care!.
Believe me if this bill was passed, you will start seeing lots of divorce cases from gold digging women as it is applicable to foreign countries!
I mean what does the silly bill tend to achieve by giving women equal right in marriage and divorce! Tah!!!

There is a reason God made woman from the rib of man and no woman is equal to a man!

Just saw the part of the bill about violence against women, I think that aspect should be adopted in a separate bill and passed.
#Say no to violence against women.
But for equal rights? Mba!!!

MrDojo:


No disrespect to women bt I don't see d@ happening in Nigeria any time soon....for the nxt 20yrs @ least..

Daverytimes:


[size=18pt]You are an idiot and those who liked your comments likewise. People like you are why Nigeria will not be living its impoverived and backwards state anytime soon, am ashamed to see how many like you got because its a reflection of just how many illitrates we have on nairaland and Nigeria as a whole. What utter shame, you all carry religion on your heads anytime you want to advocate for the repression of peoples, never for the good[/size].

I am in support of racism. The white race is simply superior to the black race. In fact we must take them as our Lord and Saviour.

The universe has designed the white race to control other races

We must bow down to them

The law of nature has given them control over us

I wonder what they're looking for.they're loved and cared for already.just that they're asking for too much.the creator is supreme,he's made men already to be the boss.but put love of the women in his heart that can turn him to the servant.But this women though. Hmmmmm

mccoy47:

Must they rule?
Aren't they satisfied with being ministers and law makers?

[size=15pt]**modified**[/size] I just had to bring this post foward.

Equal rights Equal rights yet they would be the one to always ask for help in the most mundane ish.

Equal employment opportunities yet they would ask for 6months maternity leave, heartbreak leave and if care is not taken, they would ask for menstrual cramps leave!

Equal rights yet a man is crucified before the world and press the moment a lady accuses him of rape, without even hearing his side And if tables are turned the man (victim) is mocked!

Equal rights yet a man is expected to always be the provider in a home, and in a situation where the man lags behind, he is called a lazy man, nobody calls the woman that!

Equal rights yet in dire emergency situations women and children are carried to saftey 1st. And the men maybe later.

Where do I start and where do I stop?
God will punish the next mouth that shouts equal rights. Wether owned by a man or woman!!!

bughead:
thank you! I have been trying to educate that WOMAN but she keep on shouting and shouting.

equality and slavery are two different things but she rather like shouting than listening and understanding.

So many illiterates and backward people commenting on this thread

Favolly:
And that one had the guts to bring the bible into it..... Is the Bible an African or a Nigerian document? I don't understand how you will quote it in defence of a stance of Africanism as a basis for gender discrimination. Appalling!

Wait, Oga common sense wasn’t at this sitting?? Because I sure cannot see his name amongst those that spoke in support of the bill. Oga common sense, you are not a Twitter senator o! Don't go on Twitter and be supporting Bill that you didn't actually vote in favour of.

Why am I even surprised? How many women do we have in the Nigerian Senate?? Remi Tinubu and Oduah, I hope y'all defended the bill too? This should even be the first problem. The average Nigerian man with the average education and exposure does not believe in gender equality, not to talk of the less-than-average, masochistic brains in the National Assembly. So really, I shouldn't be surprised that this bill was thrown out

No way! Who am I kidding? I am shocked! Nays have it on a basic fundamental human rights issue??!!

I'm so not proud to be a Nigerian at this moment. Shame!!

unfortunately WOMEN are your worse enemy on this one.

during my years one thing I know is that women can't hold a organization or movement without men fueling them!

WOMEN can't regroup because ya all don't have one mind on ya own.

I dont have a problem with the law as long as no more bride price, no more alimony, everyone responsible for his or her self after divorce. example a man make one billion dollars and marries a woman and she start cheating then he divorce her, he will now pay her 500 million dollars cos of marriage of one two years. biko this law is just injustice to men no equality. cos i never see where a man start struggling for his wife money after divorce. I never hear when a woman pay a man alimony for nigeria.

I only oppose violence against women.
thats all

Why are you lying?

CookieBrown:


equality and slavery are two different things -> Hmmm! If a slave is equal to his master then why is he a slave in the first place? If there was equality between the black slaves and their Southern masters, would such slavery had ever existed? The issue of Equality is directly linked to slavery. Now this is me educating you Mr. woman educator.

Even in the famous Animal Kingdom, all animals aren't equal. What the Nation needs is a bill to protect Women more against all domestic and Social Violences, not to twist Nature..

Have you ever wondered? Why is it that all witches are from poor backgrounds? Why are all the children accused of witchcraft from poor and wretched backgrounds? Why is it that all the people amputated under sharia law are poor people? Why is it that all the people flogged for adultery, fornication under sharia law etc are poor people? Why is it that all the people excommunicated from churches are poor people? Why is it that people jailed in our law courts for long prison terms are poor people? Why is it that all the thugs used for snatching ballot boxes and instigating violence on election days are from poor backgrounds? Why is it that all the people beaten and humiliated by soldiers for wearing military camouflages are poor people? The list is endless...
