Women Are More Reliable In Politics Than Men - Obasanjo

Former President, Olusegun Obasanjo has said that women are more reliable in politics than their counterparts.
 He however said women suffered cultural and religious inhibitions thus depriving them of political opportunities to exhibit their potentials.

He said this on Wednesday, when the national executives and members of the Nigeria Association of Women Journalists visited him at his residence in Ogun state.

"One of the best journalists that ever served me was a woman, and that was the late Mrs Oluremi Oyo. In politics, women are more reliable than men. When a woman says she is with you, you can really take it that she is with you."

"But if a man tells you he is with you and you catch him in another meeting, he will tell you it is politics. It should not be so."

The women journalists presented the ex-President with Father of the Nation award, during the visit.
