In recognition of the roles of women in the society, a clergyman Reverend Father John Damian Adizie has called on the government and the entire populace to accord women their statutory rights, noticing their impact and contributions to the sustainable development goals of the United Nations initiative.
The Catholic priest who is the Director of International Youth Empowerment and Rehabilitation Centre (IYERC), in Ekpoma Edo State in a statement today said that there’s no better way to celebrate women all over the world as they mark International Women’s Day today than to look inwards and positively recognise their huge impacts as home builders, peace makers and larger contributors of agro economy globally.
Rev Fr. Adizie who is also an advocate of gender equality and rights of women said, “Having lived and worked with women at the rural areas I have come to realize that this group contributes immensely to the development of any society today.
