They Gang-Up Against Me Just Because I'm Igbo Woman – Onyeka Onwenu

MY DISENGAGEMENT FROM NATIONAL CENTRE FOR WOMEN DEVELOPMENT

When the call came on Sept 13 2013, to serve the Nigerian people as DG National Center For Women Development, I took it as a call from God and I answered in the affirmative. 

I served for 2years and five months and did my best under very difficult conditions. We hardly had money to operate and the place was badly run down. Worst, there was low moral and lack of commitment among the Staff. Most spent the day loitering and gossiping. Many would not show up for work or arrive 11am, only to leave before 3pm. Some were absent for months and we're just collecting their salary at home.
