A former Acting Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Dr. Akwagaga Lelegima Enyia, has charged women to step-up and start doing things that will enable them create value in the society.
She noted that the current prevailing situation in the country does not require people, especially women who wait for things to be done.
According to the ex-NDDC boss, empowering women and women empowering themselves is essential for social economic development, adding that, ‘this is no longer time to be spectators, everybody must be active, work and create value.”
Akwagaga gave the charge at the weekend in Port Harcourt while addressing women and girls at the Advancing Women In Business (ADWIB) programme, in commemoration of the International Women’s Day (IWD).
