“It is a huge honor for me in a country like Nigeria, where so many women have broken the glass ceiling to be honored in this way. The greatest thing about women is their ability to be sensitive and emotional while at the same time courageous and strong.
“There is an honor and prestige that comes with being a woman. It is a huge honor for me, and I hope that all of us will stand as a representation so that all the little girls all over Nigeria will know that they too can thrive and break that glass ceiling,” she said.
Barrister Musawa, a distinguished Nigerian lawyer, politician, and writer who exemplifies dedication and excellence, added that the recognition is a testament to the power of women everywhere.
