WIFE of the Chief of Defence Staff and National President, Defence
and Police Officers Wives Association, DEPOWA, Mrs. Dupe Ibrahim,
weekend, attributed the cause of insecurity in the country, to failure
on the part of women to bring up their children properly.
The former National President of the Naval Officers Wives
Association, NOWA, who spoke during an official hand-over ceremony to
the association’s new National President, Mrs. Vivian Ezeoba, called on
women in Nigeria to inculcate good morals into their children to ensure
peace and stability in the country.
Stating emphatically that the role of women in nation building could
never be overem- phasized, Mrs. Ibrahim who is the first NOWA national
president to assume the position of DEPOWA president, admonished, “ This
is a time Nigeria needs our prayers, particularly in the area of
insecurity. As women, your children are your property .
Therefore, talk to them always, know when they go out, who they go
out with and when they come back home. “If we had taken care of our
children and trained them well, there would not have been insecurity in
the country.
This is because if you are not there to train them , others will take
care of them for you. Women are to be blamed for the state of
insecurity.”
