Woman Crush Sunday: Dr. Idiat Oluranti

Adebule was born November 27, 1970 to the family of Idowu-Esho of Ojo Alaworo in Ojo local government area of Lagos state. She is the 15th Deputy Governor of Lagos state and the sixth woman to occupy that office.Her term was not a long one as it lasted between May 29, 2015- May 28, 2019 but she can be regarded as a quiet influencer. During her tenure as the Deputy Governor, she did everything humanly possible to ensure the rescue of the victims of the 2017 Igbonla students abduction as she ensured security operatives stayed behind in the school to secure the students and teachers.

Another important step she took was, she was and is still part of the fight against unemployment. She, Mrs Idiat Adegbule; attended and organised events where she described unemployment as a time bomb waiting to explode.

At these different events, she challenged individuals and sought collective ingenuity to tackle the issue. Mrs Adegbule alongside other speakers at the events were of the opinion that it is important to unleash the talent, skills and entrepreneurial abilities in young people to develop a creative solution to the problem of unemployment in Nigeria.

One beautiful thing about this Icon is her love for leadership did not ruin her career or dreams, she is also certified and a diligent doctor.

The Empowered woman

Age,class,status,beauty or achievements do not define a real woman,but character does. I can't but wonder at the stories we hear these days about women.I marvel at the rate of evil perpetuated by women in our society.Prostitution is old wives tale but when women are involved in armed robbery,kidnappings,terrorism,gang rape,adultery,fraud to mention a few,then by a...

The Career Woman

I stumbled upon this beautiful article on IFP while researching on other stuff and thought to share it. It's a 4 minutes read. I totally agree with it. Gender equality seems to be the one issue that isn't going away. Many of us like to believe sexism is something that only plagued the workplaces of yesteryear, but unfortunately it still exists. Don't believe us? Well, in 2016 just 57% of the world's working-age women were in employment, compared to 70% of their male counterparts. And even the females who were in work were struggling to catch up with the men. Women with full-time jobs still earn only about 77% of their male counterparts' earnings. Of course, the issue is complex and many expect that because most countries have made it illegal to pay women less than men, that gender inequality has fixed itself. However, problems surrounding unconscious bias , parental leave, and outdated stereotypes about gender roles persist in the workplace. But what are th...

Domestic Voilence in Nigeria heightens in the face of economic hardship-majority of victims are women!

A recent Public Opinion poll conducted by NOIPolls Limited in partnership with Project Alert on domestic violence has revealed an increasing prevalence of domestic violence across Nigeria in recent times as reported by about 8 in 10 (78 percent) respondents. This prevalence is highest in the South-West geo-political zone (86 percent) and lowest in the South-South zone (70 percent). More findings revealed that 54 percent of Nigerians have suffered a form of domestic violence or know someone that has experienced domestic violence in their homes with majority of the victims being women as stated by 75 percent of respondents. Just this week, a man in Aba Abia state allegedly beat his wife into coma for lying to him that she has not been paid her salary after commissioner for finance Obinna Oriaku mis-informed the Abia public on radio that civil servants salary arrears have been paid.
