    She also advised that all women should be encouraged to become useful and relevant for national development.

    “I will get some of our interviews and activities together in documents for history and to encourage you to become better than us because during our time, most of us were not graduates. We tried our best and left the rest but now we have those who are well educated and enlightened who will take Nigerians to the best of places for women.”
