LAGOS—The Iyaloja General of Nigeria and President of association of commodity market women and men of Nigeria, Mrs. Folashade Tinubu-Ojo, has rejected the list of delegates to represent market women to the national conference, saying the representatives are unknown as market women leaders.
She said: “It is dead on arrival! We call on the Federal Government to quickly adjust this anomaly before the conference commences.”
In a statement in Lagos yesterday by Iyaloja-general on behalf of all market women and men across the country, she wondered where the presidency got the names of the purported representatives of the market women from, considering the fact that only one among the six delegates, Mrs. Felicia Sanni is the only known and recognised market women leader.
According to her: “With the exception of the earlier mentioned market leader, the under listed women according to the delegates list just released by the Presidency, none of the women is known within the market women associations across the country.”
