The Senator representing Bayelsa East constituency, Ben Murray-Bruce, has expressed his support for the Gender Equality Bill.
Murray-Bruce showed his support in a tweet on Thursday. He also excused himself from the failure of the bill to pass a second reading on the floor of the Senate.
“I support the Gender Equality #GEOBill,” he twitted. “I was abroad with my Senate Cttee when it came up, but I’ve gotten assurances it will be represented.”
On Tuesday, the Senate had rejected the bill seeking to empower women politically and economically, as well as grant them equal opportunities with men in diverse human endeavours.
