Margaret also noted that the administration of the Labour Party led by her husband has put in place realistic plans to empower women in skill acquisition in other for them to compete healthily in the labour market and also help foster industrialisation.
She said:
"In human capital development, many women have been rendered as economic consumers, because none has invested in developing their skills to enable them to be economically productive.
"The ObiDatti government has promised to invest in skills training in various fields to ensure that women have the opportunity to participate as active members of the labour workforce.
"These skills will increase the earning potential of women, especially those in the rural areas, and afford them the dignity to make money for themselves, thus reducing the chances of those women being helpless victims in abusive relationships."
