Tinubu tells APC zonal state women leaders that women should not be confined to shadows,

APC National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has said women should not be confined to the shadows, rather they should be empowered in all social, economic and political spheres. He spoke on Friday in Abuja when he held an interactive session with a delegation comprising the party’s Zonal and State Women Leaders who paid a courtesy call on him.

According to a statement by Tinubu Media Office, their friendly and spirited discussion focused on female participation in politics and the pivotal role of women in fostering development in Nigeria. Asiwaju Tinubu described the women as 
“our party’s vibrant present and, also, its more equitable future”.
Assuring the gathering of his lifelong commitment to female empowerment and progress, Asiwaju Tinubu declared: “I do not believe that women should be confined to the shadows. Rather, I believe that by empowering women in all social, economic and political spheres, we invite exponential social, economic and political growth in Nigeria”.

He urged the women to actively play their role in the realisation of the party’s progressive ideals. He also asked them to join him to make the APC function as its best incarnation, calling this task 
“an abiding duty” for all senior members and officials in the party.

Recognising their power and importance to the party’s future as a constructive force in Nigerian politics, Asiwaju said “you are the nexus between the party’s leadership and its grassroots membership, particularly its female membership and you hold significant power over the direction of our party both in your communities and at the national level”.

Urging the women to lend him their support, Asiwaju asked them “to partner with me to create an unbeatable coalition that will win the general elections in February 2023 for all APC candidates, including, I hope, a record number of women”. Confirming that the journey was not merely about the realisation of a lifelong personal ambition, Asiwaju commented that his goal was to “secure the future of our nation and the good and able governance of its people”.

Augustine Eguavoen Did A Fine Job As Super Eagles Coach

  By now it is no news to any Nigerian sports fan, that Augustin Eguavoen and his entire team have been relieved of their duties at the helm of affairs of the Nigerian National team. Most Nigerians are happy with this development, with some claiming that his immediate predecessor, Gernot Rohr would have delivered better results. However, a simple analysis of events will clearly demonstrate that Eguavoen did a fine enough job given the circumstances. I will attempt to undertake this analysis by demonstrating, first that Eguavoen has a better record than one might realize, and secondly by comparing the performance of his Super Eagles with that of Afcon winners, Senegal, and runners-up Egypt. When Gernot Rohr was sacked a few weeks to the Afcon, knowledgeable sportspersons decried the move, citing the difficulty any new coach would face in setting up the team to play to his own patterns.
