Uju Kennedy-Ohanenye, minister of women affairs, has cautioned officials of the ministry against organising events without her knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The minister is seen in a viral video speaking at an event she said was organised without her input, adding that the programme did not directly impact the people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She was said to have stormed the event shortly after it commenced in Abuja on Wednesday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event was a validation workshop for the third-generation national action plan (2024-2029) on the UN Security Council Resolution (UNSCR).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was reportedly organised by the federal ministry of women affairs and the UN women.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLet this be the last time women affairs will organise anything that I am not aware of. You try next time; I will come here and get you people disgraced,\u201d the minister said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know what I am going through in this country. For a while, this is what we keep on organising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFew weeks ago, there was a hunger protest, and they talked about peace and security. Women are not empowered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cChildren are suffering. Nigerians are suffering, but we waste money all the time on frivolous things that don\u2019t make sense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cMany people may misunderstand me, but I am ready to be misunderstand. I am ready to be tortured. I am ready. I have changed the narrative; I said no programme without empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou are talking about peace and security. With poverty, how can you solve it? You keep talking, doing workshops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith poverty, where are we heading to? How do we solve that poverty by directing money to the wrong channels that don\u2019t make an impact on humans? On those people you want them to change and give you peace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI have changed the narrative. I said do not do any programme without empowerment. They give money to the ministries, and it is used for travel and programmes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cNothing that will impact the nation. If you hear the money the government gives out to ministries, you will be shocked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhy should it continue like that? Why should we fold our hands and these things will continue? Who do you think will save you? It\u2019s you that will save yourself. Let them call me names, troublemaker,\u2019 \u2018mad woman,\u2019 \u2018I am ready to take it.\u2019<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not today. I told them that you can\u2019t bring N100m and use it to do programme. That is the fact, that over N100 million is used for programmes. I said they should always use half to empower the women, then use the other half to do your programme.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier this month, the minister had also disrupted an event in Abuja and ordered the arrest of the organiser for \u2018impersonation\u2019.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
