Thank you. 🙏🏽
This is PATRICIA ETTEH
She Was the first woman Speaker and still remains the only woman speaker till date
Her offense was that she being the speaker never goes down well with some misogynist men in the House of Representatives back then
The men said they’ve a wife like her at home and she can’t rule over them
They kicked so much against her and even tried to beat her up during a heated arguments on national television
They accused her of Budgeting 635m for the renovation of her quarters and that of her deputy
The accusations brought so much heats to her that newspapers and television stations were covering it for months,she eventually resigned when the pressure was too much
Her successor “DIMEJI BANKOLE” came in and embezzled over 40 BILLION NAIRE and the men in the House of Representatives never bat an eye at his corruptions
Misogyny and Patriarchy is the reason why so many women fit to rule wouldn’t be given a chance in the governorship and presidency sits in NIGERIA.
