Former President Olusegun Obasanjo, believes that women can do better in public offices than men.
He said this yesterday November 5 when members of the Nigeria
Association of Women Journalists, NAWOJ, paid him a visit at his
Hilltop residence in Abeokuta, where he was presented with a Father of
the Nation plaque. He said:
“One of the best journalists that ever
served me was a woman, and that was the late Mrs Oluremi Oyo. In
politics, women are more reliable than men. When a woman says she is
with you, you can really take it that she is with you. But if a man
tells you he is with you and you catch him in another meeting, he will
tell you it is politics. It should not be so. When a politician’s words
cannot be believed, then you are turning politics into another thing. A
politician must be a man or woman of honour that believes in
morality.”
