Chukwu also spoke about her foster father, Mr Arthur Iloh, who she said carried her on his back when she was unable to walk.
“He carried a grown woman like me on his Back in the middle of the night cos I couldn’t walk! He was there at the hospital till we were discharged, then took us Home.”
She said the experience made her realise that while she had been angry because her biological father did not show up, other men had been there for her.
“While I was angry at men because my own father didn’t show up when I was sick and dying I forgot there were so many men who were there for me too.”
‘Evil Has No Gender’
Chukwu called on women to stop viewing men as their enemies and instead focus on people who commit wrongdoing, regardless of their gender.
She said:
“This is a call to my fellow women! Evil has no gender! Let’s not fight men! Let’s stand together and fight against bad people.”
She argued that women can also be responsible for serious crimes, stressing that wrongdoing should not be associated with one gender.
She added:
“It’s bad people we ought to fight! It’s corruption we need to fight! It’s bad leaders! Insecurity! Hunger! E.t.c not ourselves!”
Men and Women Have Different Strengths – Sonia Says
Chukwu also shared her views on gender roles, saying she does not believe men and women are equal in every area because, according to her, both genders have different abilities.
She said:
“I stand for love
“I stand for inclusiveness
“I do not believe men and women are equal we are all abled differently!”
She added that there are areas where women are superior and others where men are superior, arguing that competition between the sexes is unnecessary.
“Nature has made men leaders! God too made them Heads! Let us allow them Lead while we contribute to make the leadership worthwhile!”
