Confusion as Peter Obi says women are more productive, leaks plan to set up Ministry of Men’s Affairs as governor

The Labor Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has said that experience has shown that Nigerian women are more productive than women.

Responding to questions about how he will ensure that women’s participation in government is proportional to their votes, Obi said it is important that people return to his background as a leader.

The former Governor of Anambra State confirmed that during his tenure in the state, women held key government positions.

He also mentioned that for this reason he was tempted to create a ministry for men’s affairs to address the deficit faced by the male gender in government.

His words:

“You know, I’ve always held that what we have to do is look at people’s pasts, just like someone came here and said looking at my past. And I was able to explain the circumstances that I found myself in that helped me make the decision. I took then.

“In fact, let me tell you that as governor, I was about to establish the ministry of men’s affairs because women took over.

“It’s simple, go and check as governor of Anambra state, my chief of staff was a woman, permanent secretary of Government House; woman; finance commissioner woman; general accountant woman, head of service, woman; youth commissioner and sports, female; education commissioner, female; local government commissioner, female.

“I said they took over and as I said women are more productive in Nigeria than men are in Nigeria.”

In addition, the former governor noted that he worked with the best crop of women while in government and in the banking industry.

He said:

“I worked with them when I was in the banking industry, they saved the bank. When they believe in something, they do it. How I wish our men would do the same. And be less corrupt.”
