This blessed day, I stand with the global community in celebrating International Women’s Day, a moment to recognize the strength, resilience, and accomplishments of women across all aspects of life.
The theme of this year’s campaign, “Accelerate Action,” calls for urgent action to dismantle barriers, close gender gaps, and build a more inclusive world where women can flourish without constraints.
It serves as a reminder that progress toward gender equality cannot be slow or stagnant—we must take bold, decisive actions to ensure that women and girls have equal opportunities in leadership, education, business, and every sector of society.
I Hon Aderemi Oseni, reaffirm my unwavering dedication to advocating for policies that empower women, support female entrepreneurs, and protect the rights of women and girls in Nigeria. True development can only be achieved with the full participation of women, and as a nation, we must accelerate our efforts toward a future where every woman’s potential is fully realized.
On this important day, I celebrate our mothers, sisters, daughters, and wives—women whose influence shapes families, communities, and our nation.
Let us all take responsibility for advancing gender equality and creating a society where women and girls are truly empowered.
Happy International Women’s Day!
