 The House of Representatives has rescinded its earlier decision on three of the gender bills it voted against. That was during the consideration of 68 recommendations during the Constitution amendment last week. The speaker was speaking, making the announcement that the decision by the House was to give the women a sense of belonging. This is especially coming at this time when the world is celebrating the International Women's Day. Emmanuel Ehidjane completes the report. Speaker of the House of Representatives, Honorable Femiq Bajabia-Mila, made the announcement on the floor at Plenary. This was after the House had held a brief executive session before the start of the day's legislative business. The speaker said the House decision was born out of a cost for equity and for the good of the nation. There are issues arising there from and the House in its wisdom has decided to take a course of action for the good of the country. And that action is to rescind three of the decisions that were taken on that day and after the rescission release them on the next set of amendments coming up. I believe that this week in the next four weeks, within the next four weeks they will come up again for voting. You called on the 1st of March the House voted for 68 items with respect to the Constitutional Amendment. However, the aforementioned three bills could not pass the bills. Federal lawmakers in the House of Representatives reacted positively to the decision to rescind on their earlier decision. The women loved it and they loved it very, very, very, very, very well. I think they did a good job. I would not throw them under the bus and say they didn't love it. They did a very, very, very good job. But again, like we said, culture and religion has old civilization. They had to kill, they had to bury, they had to forget. But we've done a good job today. Everybody came, everybody expressed their opinion and we all came to a common ground that no, we have to do this. Though the fight for women inclusion has been on for over 20 years since 1999, but for the past one week the temple has been higher than it was. And it is justifiably so. I say so because it's a moment in time for Nigeria to adjust her legal framework towards becoming better than we met it and to achieve that it must be holistic. Holistic in the sense that the hunger, the desire, the passion of every citizen of this country must be incorporated. The National Assembly rejected three gender equality bills last week during constitution consideration of 68 bills, a decision which women groups across the country have rejected in all it and dirty.
