Former president of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, has said women are more reliable in politics than their male counterparts. The former president said this yesterday when members of the Nigerian Association of Women Journalists (NAWOJ) visited him and honoured him with the “Father of the Nation” award. In his words: “In politics, women are more reliable than men. When a woman says she’s with you, you can be assured that she is with you. But if a man tells you he is with you and you catch him in another meeting, he will tell you it is politics, it should not be so. When a politician’s words cannot be trusted, then you are turning politics into another thing. A politician must be a man or woman of honour, who believes in morality.”Obasanjo added that one of the best journalists that he ever encountered was a woman, the late Oluremi Oyo.
