She said organisers of such programmes must ensure they infuse empowerment of women in their activities.

According to her, organising workshops and seminars would not directly impact the people.

She said:

‘’Let this be the last time women affairs will organise anything that I am not aware of. You try next time, I will come here and get you people disgraced.

“Few weeks ago, there was a hunger protest and they talked about peace and security. Women are not empowered, children are suffering, Nigerians are suffering, but we waste money all the time on frivolous things.

“I am sorry. Many people may misunderstand me, but I am ready to be misunderstood. I am ready to be tortured. I am ready.

"I have changed the narrative, I said 'no programme without empowerment'."
