The only thing constant us change and Dapo abiodun has changed his mind

Kasala don't burst

11 per cent means they are underrepresented. They should be given more slots.

A guy that cant get his commissioners right in six months cannot be deemed to be serious.I dont think he has anything to offer Ogun.

Let them vote woman.

Women are the majority

coward afonja women. why can't they protest naked like great Abia women?

Those are ipob women o,going by their caps.

And their dirty second hand bras.

[b][/b]coward afonja women. why can't they protest naked like great Abia women?

All these are shameless pig

Emmmm, do they have examples where better qualified women were passed up for men?

Or did the Governor promise them a percentage of his cabinet during his campaign?

Protesting doesn't mean you women have to show us your dirty and unsexy brassieres!
Common................ I just puked in my mouth seeing one of those images on the front page

Commissioners should be appointed on the basis of merit and competence, not on the basis of gender.

They were not naked too

you dey find breast to see

Lol, you are on your own if are voting for Nigeria politicians base on what they are saying during campaigns

What’s wrong with that?

AbdulHakeem44:
Give them 50% involvement in government and they will crave for 70%. No be women again.

I’m sure there were more than enough qualified women to fill the appropriate number of slots.

Statistically doesn’t even need to be asked.

Could be anywhere from 50 % to any number that ensures the women are adequately represented especially in areas that affect women the more.

I’m not caught up in the specific number that it is. But a population that is mostly made of 50/50 men and women is doing poorly if only 11% of it’s female is represented.

We wouldn’t be having this conversation if there were 89% of women in government with only 11% being men.
Everyone would know without being told that it’s not balanced.

But since it’s women, let’s have a discussion about it and critically analyze every aspect of it.

So the useless south western governor has finally released names of commissioners after 6months

Anu man

I am not a fan of Quota system, it shows that women are not fit enough to compete on a level playing field with men and need help to be propped up to standard.

If a government consist of 90% women because they are more competent, then so be it.

My only concern would be gender specific cabinets like ministry of women affairs, ministry of men affairs (if any) etc.

Nigeria is however a different ball game and I am sure that a number of the elected people (men & women) are put there to compensate the godfathers.

Besides, women are always whinning about how imbalanced women in politics are yet when Ms. Sarah Jubril contested for presidency, she wasn't voted; Madam Fresh then campaigned in Lagos, no, they did not vote.

Yet we want the men to hand on a platter what we have refused to do for ourselves.

This is one of those children who were born during the Civil War when Yoruba/Hausa soldiers used Igbo women as sex slaves?

That tell you the difference between the people still living in the past and the ones who are truly civilized...





BTW, why don't you ask your folks the reason for their massive influx into the Yoruba land?

How many women are involved in politics compare to men? Because you are a woman you should be given slot but the men that fought tooth and nail for his winning should be neglected. Those 89% of men and the 11% of women he appointed are among the people that contributed to his winning.

If women want equal participation in politics, then more women should join politics. Very simple.

Women will not vote or support a woman but want men to support women.

Seriously, we should be pushing merit first. However, if there is a choice between a less qualified man, and a more qualified woman, the position should be delegated on qualifications, not gender. Otherwise, a dangerous precedent is set.

Maybe because they had nothing sensible to run on?

I doubt it.

You find very few sensible people in Nigerian politics.

The Sarah Jubril woman had one vote or four if I remember correctly.

Her family members did not even vote her yet I am sure some of them would be online crying how women are grossly under-represented in Nigerian politics.

I find it sad that women are not represented in politics accordingly but I wouldn't vote for a woman for the simple reason that she is a woman. She must convince me that she has a political agenda that represents my interest better than the agenda of other candidates, have the same political leaning, world-view and a vision for the direction of the country.

Hmmm

I agree with you.

Hence I do not get the constant complaints of under representation of women.

Arrant nonsense! And many of those women protesting are probably not even qualified for the job in the governor's cabinet.
Anyway, if the governor promised 50% women in his cabinet, he should fulfil his promise
