Yesterday, Toolz Oniru took to Instagram to share her thoughts on the gender equality bill thrown out by the Nigerian Senate at the last plenary session.
“A lot of women were appalled when the gender equality bill was thrown out, but after talking about it extensively on radio and everywhere else, I came to the conclusion that we as Nigerian (African) women have a lot to do ourselves before things can change positively,” the OAP said.
And then she asked same question Caroline Danjuma and Dabota Lawson had previously asked.
“What is it about our society that makes tearing each other down the first thing a lot of women think to do?” She asked, and then she launched into a story about how she feels insecure when she see women who are more successful.
“But I’ve learnt to change that energy,” she added. “Now I get so inspired…I think if she can do great things, so can I….I think ‘she’s doing great, so I better get my sh*t together and move up this success ladder.”
