Hon. Funmilayo Tejuosho is a member of the Lagos State house of Assembly and itis her fourth time. In a recent chat with Encomium Magazine, she revealed that being a woman cost her the position of speaker of the house.
Encomium: What will you say was responsible for your inability to clinch the post?
I think it’s because I am a woman. I don’t think there is any other thing. I think we are not prepared for women in this society. We need to move away from that. I believe I am capable and qualified to be Speaker. I am glad I came out to vie for it. Otherwise, they will be saying, oh! she didn’t ask for it. That is why we didn’t give her.
