WE NEED A FEMALE LEADER!

Nigeria, the giant of Africa gained her independence from Britain in 1960 and all our political leaders, military and civilian have been men up to date.  However, I think the time has come when we have to consider a woman option as our president I know that Nigerian men will think otherwise and argue against such a proposition.  From independence till date, over ten men have ruled Nigeria at different times.  It is time we had women presidents in our nation.

Firstly, a woman president is needed urgently right now because men have disappointed Nigerians hence, we need a change, if over ten men has ruled and there is no positive change, let us try women and see what happens.  This method has been tested in some countries such as Britain and India to mention but a few, and they recorded a great deal of success.  This is to further buttress the fact that says “what a man can do, a woman can do better”.  We need change and a radical departure from the primitive idea that a woman cannot rule a country. 

Secondly a woman is naturally endowed with sympathy and this is what is needed to overcome our problems in the country.  Most of the military rulers who has ruled us in recent years are dubious, inhuman and callous.  indeed, they had no sympathy for their fellow country men and women.  If they had, no single individual will hold a whole single nation to ransom by arresting and detaining hundreds of targeted opposition leaders.  In fact, we need a woman president to heal the wounds inflicted by our past men leaders.  A woman president will not promulgate draconian decrees to either punish certain people or co experienced Nigerians from constructive criticism which is an ingredient of growth in modern society.
Furthermore, a woman president is needed if we need accountability as our watch word.  Nigerian men leaders, both civilian and military have not lived up to expectation as far as this is concerned.  They get to revered position only to loot our treasury.  They amass wealth by keeping fat foreign bank account in nearly all the developed countries around the world, yet they deceive us by advising us to show transparent honesty in whatever we do.  We have had enough of deceit and financial impropertry from our men leaders, no woman can behave in such manner.  This is because women naturally show human feelings as mothers.

In addition, women are endowed with wisdom.  That is why they run affair in their various homes with dedication and uprightness.  They are one who bring up children and embark on commercial activities to maintain their families.  This sense is needed in today in the country so that a woman president will help us maintain our financial and material resources to take our country to a greater height.  

Finally, if democratic principles and ideology are to be followed, we need a woman president.  Our population is over hundred million and female account for over 65% and statistic says female voters carries 70% of total voters at any election in the country.  If all these are factual then what prevents women from being presidents in Nigeria? Nothing of course, except the few disgruntled male politicians who deceive the populace that only men have the magic wand to bring prosperity to the nation. LOL.

My only hope is that Nigerian women are given a chance to lead and let us all see the difference.
