By CALLISTUS OFFOR, Abuja –
The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) women have vowed to mobilize over 45 million young Nigerian women to support the women folks in the forth coming 2023 general elections and to champion the marginalisation of women.
The women under the aegis of PDP Angels and Queen, also warned the male politicians, who think the women folks cannot to participate actively in the political decision of the country.
The President of PDP Angels and Queen, Ms. Chinenye Ubah, stated this on Friday during a press conference in Abuja.
Ms. Ubah, who decried how women folks are relegated to the background in politics, however, cautioned men who believed that the role of a woman should be restricted to the other room; adding that this is a “dawn of a new era”.
“We want to unequivocally state that gone are those days when women are relegated to the background in politics; we want to warn those men who believe that the role of a woman should be restricted to the other room; we want to warn those men who believe that women should not hold political positions, it’s the “DAWN OF A NEW ERA”.
“PDP Angels has come to right those wrongs. We will contest for every contestable positions from President down to Councillors, we will ensure that women are not just seen but will be very VOCAL. We will ensure that our role will no longer be just in the other room but in the room where political decisions are taken”.
The PDP women leader also assured the party’s National Chairman of victory in the forth coming presidential election.
“Elections are won in Nigeria with less than 20 million votes but Nigeria young women are over 45 million, so who says that we cannot singlehandedly produce the next President?
“We will work hand in hand with our National Chairman SENATOR IYORCHIA AYU to ensure that PDP rises again”, she said.
Ms. Ubah said that the PDP Angels have come to stay, adding that Nigerian women must be liberated politically.
“It is a known fact that the men have ran down the economy of this country, corruption has been the order of the day, Insecurity has plagued our nation as we can no longer sleep with our two eyes closed, our women are raped, children are rendered homeless and poverty has become our middle name”.
“The women must take their rightful position in politics. We must get women to actively engage in politics so that we can produce better leaders”, she said.
