The Ooni of Ife, in company of dignitaries and celebrities at the second edition of Queen Moremi Ajasoro musicals on Dec. 24 in Lagos.

The Ooni of Ife, Adeyeye Ogunwusi, has said that women can rise to be president of Nigeria because they have the strengths and potential of good leadership.

The Ooni spoke at the opening session of the second edition of “Queen Moremi, the Musical, Reloaded” late on Tuesday at the  Lagos Continental Hotels in Lagos.

According to him, we should try to uplift the position of women because they have a lot to offer society.

He noted that there were lots of God-given talents in women, which were demonstrated through the heroic deeds of Queen Moremi Ajasoro (QMA) many years ago.

“We’ll keep telling the story of Queen Moremi Ajasoro to bring out the strengths, talents and powers of women and what they can offer to our society to make a difference.

” Our prayer is that someday, we will have a female president, probably, they may even do better.

“We had only struggled to have a female speaker but she could not scale through to the end so we need to support them to excel in future,” he said.

The Ojaja II also called on both government and private organisations to continue to support the cause of the girl-child to give them a sense of pride in the society.

“We’ll keep telling the story of Queen Moremi Ajasoro to focus on how the society can uplift the girl-child to have a sense of pride and occupy a place in the progress of the country in future,” he said.

The monarch also commended the wife of the former Ogun State Governor, Mrs Olufunsho Amosun, who he commissioned as the “Queen Moremi of our time” for her support in promoting the female cause.

Also, Ronke Ademiluyi, the cultural ambassador to QMA, told The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) that the cultural show would take place in eight days from December 24 to January 2, 2020.

NAN also reports that over 900 spectators graced the first day of the show.

They include Olufunsho Amosun, Toyin Kolade, Mrs Nike Adedutan,and  Mr Tonye Cole; the  Chairman, Andron Homes.
