Presenting the award to Mr. Sanusi at a ceremony held at the International Conference Centre, Yaoundé, Cameroon, last Wednesday, the President of FIDA, Worldwide, Sheela Anish, commended him for consistently championing the cause of the womenfolk.
She said FIDA, the renowned body of women lawyers, elected to confer the award on the apex bank governor because his actions portrayed him to be an advocate of mainstreaming gender issues in the country.
A statement from the bank yesterday said that while noting that Sanusi was recognised for the promotion of women in business and leadership, Mrs Anish urged other men in positions of leadership to emulate the sterling example set by the multi-award winning Central Bank Governor.
In his keynote address prior to receiving the award, the CBN Governor noted that the only realistic way to arrest the high incidence of poverty in the world is by focusing more resources on women.
This, according to him, is because women not only make up 50 per cent of the world’s population, but are also at the bottom of the demographic pyramid and the closest to the children.
Speaking further, Mr. Sanusi observed that womenfolk, especially career women, do far more work as they continue to do massive work at home after long office hours, for which they are not properly remunerated.
