Vice president of the Republic of Liberia, Dr. Jewel Taylor has praised Kogi state governor Yahaya Bello for surpassing the 35% Gender Equality Beijing Affirmative Action.
She stated this when she was hosted to a dinner by female appontees of the governor's cabinet before attending the All Progressive Congress's National Women Progressive Congress.
According to her, the leadership style of Governor Bello is worthy of emulation and should be a standard for African nations.
Taylor said many politicians often talk about their vision in politics but they never come to pass and they make several commitments.
She noted that Governor Bello is doing what women and young people want
It will be recalled that Nigeria signed the Beijing Declaration on 35 percent Affirmative Action on women inclusion in 1995 but many state governments have not kept to the pact.
