Founding Fathers and Founding Mothers Too!



Founding Fathers of Political Parties. What about Founding Mothers. Every child has a Mom who caters for kids. Alternatively say “founding members” or “party stalwarts” or “staunch members” and so no. E.g:

In the Nigerian Bar Association, we no longer say “gentlemen of the Bar”. Ask NBA President AB Mahmoud SAN, OON. He won’t address a gathering of lawyers as such. Since 2001 when my humble self hugely supported by our Law Professor Jadesola Akande of Blessed memory got NBA to use gender neutral epithets in the NBA Constitution etc..

We cannot now allow APC, PDP, APGA, UPP  or  NUJ, NIESV, et al to stay on gender retrogression without a fight.  Make no mistake about it we will engage all the political parties in Nigeria until they have recognized both genders. It takes a Mom and a Dad to give birth esp Mothers those who took(and take) care of your homes, your childhood. UN says “leave no one behind” and “no more unrecognized work by women” in political parties such as PDP and APC intending to berth in 2019.  

As to SW PDP; proportionality (not punishment) so that you may reward the regions according to work to enamor more.  Check it out!
1.    Deputy Vice Chair, Elder Yemi  - SW
2.    National Treasurer – Aribisala Adewale – SW
National Publicity Secretary – Kola Ologbondiyan – although Kogi but has  a SW link
3.    National Deputy Publicity Secretary Diran Odeyemi - SW
WOMEN – Deputy National Auditor in person of  Ms Arong and National Women Leader and her deputy. Should actually have given them 7 which represents at least 30%.
Dear APC founding members,  when you have your convention kindly let more women take positions in your party structure and government in line with our national policy on gender 35% affirmative action.

NWC PDP filled 21 positions, on the average of 3 per zone and extra 3 across regions that earned more than SW had helped or is helping or may not have done well. Look in families if your kid scores “A” you buy him or her grade “A” present perhaps at Christmas. If the grade drops from A or B to D or E or even “F”, nudge him/ her to sit up. That z it!
Good morning ALL
