Abah, a journalist, women and children’s rights activist, and founder of CEE-HOPE Nigeria, spoke on International Women’s Day’, March 8) on the theme of empowerment of women for this year's celebration (which centered around ‘Empowered Women, Empowered Humanity’) on TVC, a Pan-African television network in Lagos, Nigeria.
She speaks on why empowering women is a good deal for everyone everywhere. And also, on how, 20 years after the Beijing Conference, not much progress has been made in terms of women's equality or the overall wellbeing or status of women especially in the developing world.
Mrs. Abah also spoke on the current disproportionate representation of women at the highest levels of socio-economic and socio-political decision-making establishments as well as the increasing trends of gender-based violence among others.
And she, most importantly, spoke on the need for girl empowerment via educational access, while lamenting the reality of the fact that more than 333 days after their abduction, the 219 Chibok school girls are not yet back. She criticized the lackluster and seemingly unconcerned attitude of the Federal Government of Nigeria to their plights and those of women and children in the conflict-affect northern region of Nigeria.
Happy Women's Day 2015!
