INTERNATIONAL WOMEN DAY: IN EDO,WE HAVE EXAMPLES OF HOW WOMEN HAVE TRANSFORMED DIFFERENT SECTORS OF THE STATE'S ECONOMY.{PHOTO}.#PRESS RELEASE.

In commemoration of the International Women’s Day marked every March 8, we are committed to providing opportunities for women to contribute to the state’s development.
In Edo, we have ample examples of how women have transformed different sectors of the state’s economy. We are proud of the achievement of these women and will be engaging them more as we work to make Edo great again.
We would continue to advance policies and programmes to promote gender mainstreaming. My administration has made commitments to ensuring that more women are brought into mainstream politics to ensure that their input is taken into consideration in policy-making.
In my first term in office, I appointed female Special Adviser and Special Assistants across the 18 local government areas of the state. This was to ensure that women get a seat on the decision-making table.
So, as we celebrate women today, we once again reiterate our commitment to ensuring that we tap the strength, resilience, courage and talents of our women in our economic development trajectory.
It is in our best interest to do so as we have first-hand evidence that they have a lot to contribute in making our state great again.
