Stop Attributing Women’s Success To S*xual Relationships With Their Bosses- Abimbola Fashola Warns

While celebrating this year’s International Women’s day at
the Police College in Ikeja on Thursday, the Lagos State first lady warned in
her speech that people should stop attributing women’s success to s*xual
relationships with their male bosses at work. She said;

“This year’s theme, ‘Equality for women is progress for
all,’ is very apt; women should not be prevented from doing the things that
they are qualified and equipped to do simply because they are women. Unfortunately
when a woman rises fast to a certain height, her proficiency in the said field
is ignored. Rather, various unpalatable premises are brought to the fore as
reasons for her success. Nigerians should stop alluding a woman’s success to
s*xual relationships with her bosses because we don’t do that to men.”
