The women leaders led by the former North-West zonal women leader of the APC, Yahanasu Buba-Ahmed, made this known when they paid a courtesy visit to Barau at the Senate wing of the National Assembly Complex on Wednesday.
Speaking during the visit, a former South-South zonal women leader of the ruling party, Mrs. Racheal Akpabio, said the Deputy Senate President does not discriminate against women.
She said, “We are aware of the numerous progressive things you are doing in our party. The most important thing is that you don’t discriminate between women and men in whatever you do, you carry women along. We are grateful for this.
”Some of us are pioneers of the party since 2014. We carried the party to the nooks and crannies of the country. We are not tired, we are just sitting aside waiting to be called upon to join our helping hands with others to deliver the dividends of democracy to the citizens.
“We are passionate, sensitive, and loyal,’’ she was quoted in a statement by the spokesperson of the Deputy President of the Senate, Ismail Mudashir.
He lauded President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the First Lady, Senator Oluremi for the passion they have shown in bringing women into various strategic positions for the socio-economic development of the country.
“Your sacrifices since the creation of our great party, the APC have been enormous, enduring, and cannot be easily forgotten. You have sacrificed a lot in terms of time and resources towards the success of our party at all levels.
“In recognition of the sacrifices, passion, and loyalty, we will ensure that you are accorded the necessary recognition through appointments within our party and in government,’’ he said.
