Uche Jombo explains the Gender Equality bill

Uche Jombo gave her 2 cents on the recent Gender equality bill on a post she made on her IG page today. Read what she wrote after the cut...

Let's be clear #ujlovers. Gender roles/ responsibilities and gender equality are different things, the fact that some people think / believe there are the same is why #genderequalitybill didn't go through #Nigeriansenate.

With or without the bill there are women (which i am one of) that will succeed regardless but the equity fight is NOT about this group. Its about that uneducated woman in her village thinking her life is over because she has 'only' girls...its about that little girl understanding 'working twice as hard because she's a girl' ...is a goal not her only option ... i should know i am an Abiriba girl, was told thousand things i can't DO because i am a girl...(.? look where we are NOW empowering men and women)
