I’m a woman that can speak anywhere in the world –Adetunbo Agbesanwa

‘I’m an advocate of women’

 Stepdaughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Adetokunbo Agbesanwa, was one time at a woman’s programme held at Ikeja, Lagos. The amiable lady expressed joy at attending the event that bordered on the celebration of women. “Once I’m invited to a programme that I believe in the cause, I will surely come. For somebody like me aspiring for leadership position, I’m always ready to listen to my constituency, and that is the people. When we are talking about Women, I’m thrilled because I’m an advocate of women. I have a non-governmental organisation which is developed in the name of my mum, Moji Adekunle Women Leadership Foundation. I have always been in women rights activism since 1990. So, I’m at home with issues concerning women, human right and governance.  If you invite me to a programme that boarders on women, where I can let people know what women face, what I as a person being a living example had been facing, why would I want to shy away?  Second, I’m a woman that can speak anywhere in the world. I can stand my ground at any point in time. I have no issues about that because I’m well read, confident and I believe that with that confidence, there is nothing to hide. So, I’m always in the face of the public and I will be ready to be anywhere for any debate,” she emphasised.
