Women Give FG Ultimatum To Set Up NDDC Board

Published

on

Scores of women from the Niger Delta region have threatened to march round the streets of Port Harcourt as well as
the corporate headquarters of the Niger Delta Development Commission naked if the President Muhammadu Buhari failed to inaugurate a substantive board of the commission within seven days.
The women, including activists, opinion leaders and professionals across the nine states of the region, under the auspices of Wailing Women of Niger Delta (WWND) lamented that the people of the region had been taken for granted for too long while those they looked up to had let them down.
The women in a statement in Port Harcourt on Monday were accompanied by some members of Integrity Friends for Truth and Peace Initiative, saying lack of substantive board for NDDC had further impoverished the region insisting that they were hard hit by the hardship.
The President of WWND, Oney Nwadighi, who read the statement in Port Harcourt on Monday said, “”The current running stalemate at the NDDC is due to the noncompliance with the Act establishing the commission and this is a grevious breach of trust.
“The commission has been subjected to sole administratorship for years now particularly at the behest of the current supervision without accountability. We see a clear class conspiracy to privatize the NDDC at the detriment of our people.
“Unfortunately our men and fathers have given up and gone to sleep while our region gropes in the dark of underdevelopment under the current watch.
“We demand that the Federal Government should within the next seven days constitute the substantive board of the NDDC including the Governors Advisory Coubcil of the Commission in keeping with the relevant provisions of the NDDC Act.
The women, clad in black attires, called on the federal government to publish the forensic audit report of the commissio and condemned a grand plot to sustain the ongoing sole administration of NDDC till the end Buhari’s government.
They asked the Minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio to account for all the billions of naira that accrued to NDDC during the two-year period of the current administration.
“Enough is enough. We will not take it. The Federal Government and Senator Godswill Akpabio can no longer take the Niger Delta for a ride. We shall come out naked and insist on our right as the burden bearers of the region. It shall no longer be business as usual. They should get ready to kill us all,” the statement added.
The aggrieved women posited that there were no more excuses to keep delaying the board’s inauguration other than undermining the core mandates of NDDC.

The Wise Woman

The wise woman builds her home. Mothers are supposed to live exemplary lives. The roles of mothers in the building of the modern Christian home cannot be overemphasized.
The function of the mother is to help the man build the home. She is a helper. A helper to the husband when the man is not doing well. It is important for the wise woman to assist when the man is not able to meet up with the items needed in the home.
A wise woman needs to reference God first and then the husband. Also the wise woman should respect her husband.
Caring for her own children as well as others is very crucial.
Do not despise children from other mothers. Discipline the child who is going the wrong way.
Ensure family bonding, show love and don’t discriminate. Connection with children is very important, especially the females. Find out who is her friend. Also find out the kind of lives they live. Caution, counsel and guide so that they make good partners.
Teaching children the dos and donts should start from birth. Inculcate the word of God in them so that when they grow, will not depart from it.
From the Scripture, some women influenced their families positively. Virgin Mary influenced the world, she never destroyed herself hence she gave birth to Jesus Christ.
Elizabeth, despite her age, God blessed her as she waited patiently.
A wise should curb favouritism in the family and love children equally. Whether a child is your biological child or not, it is necessary to show love equally. Reprimanding the children should be the function of both man and wife.

Women are blesssed with feminine abilities that can be used for good in husbands lives. With your abilities, you can create a marriage that will last till couples get old.
A woman needs
man that is honest,  trustworthy,  nice,  loving and financially stable.
There are no two ways about finance in marriage. No matter the level of love, if there is no reasonable finance,  it is always difficult to manage the home.
Referring to the Biblical belief in Genesis 3: “Your desire  shall be unto you…….. “
What this means is that whatever the woman desires in life shall be provided as far as she performs her role in her home. There are many things  the woman expects her husband to take care of.
A woman wants a husband that is not lazy,  at least helping to do one or two things when he is at home.
A man that is educated and intelligent so that they will transfer such traits to their children.
Knowing that there are traits that her husband has,  traits of taking care of people,  giving freely to people and caring for her family. She expects him to exhibit them.
A woman wants to love a husband that has family interest at heart. A man that spends time with his family,  remembering his family even as he is away from home.
No matter where he finds himself, he is not destracted by external influence. He returns home to his loved ones.
A woman should not antagonise her husband because of one error or the other. No matter the level of offence he may have committed, you still show some love.
According to the Scripture, it is with wisdom that a woman builds her home. As far as he rreturns home, you accept him as your own.
It is not as if the woman will not monitor her husband, but to certain limit.  Don’t be a monitoring spirit.  Don’t allow anything to take your joy.
Don’t loose trust in your husband. The idea of checking your husband’s phone should be discouraged. The more you check your husband and his phone, the more you loose your joy.
You can show some form of jealousy, but to an extent. Cooperation, respect and being honoured from time to time is what the woman desires.
The home should not be a battle ground for a woman and man.  A woman should be able to ask herself if the check on her husband will pay her any good.
Draw a line to a point where you checkmate your husband’s activities.
A woman wants a man that will love her and telling her you love her will be all she desires.
