<p>Senator Oluremi Tinubu, who served in the Senate for 12 years, said the chamber should be a place of honour, not controversy.</p>
<p>She also urged Nigerian women to assert themselves in leadership.</p>
<p>I know with what is going on in the Senate, you may say, why am I not taking a position? I believe that Senate is doing what is needful, because that&#8217;s what it is. Is an inside place and it&#8217;s a matured chamber. It&#8217;s a matured chamber, and it should be treated with respect. It&#8217;s an honour for you to be in that place alone’.</p>
<p><em><strong>“ &#8216;I was there for 12 years, even in my younger days, and I&#8217;m still trying to look young, but people compliment you all the time, only that, women raise yourself, don&#8217;t be in a position that men will be talking to you anyhow.”</strong></em></p>
<p>Ahead of the International Women’s Day on March 8th, the First Lady celebrated the achievements of women all over the world but in Nigeria in particular. She acknowledged the significant progress women have made over the decades, from the matriarchs of old to contemporary figures like Zuriel Oduwole, who champions peace.</p>
