Former Congresswoman Mia Love Dies at 49 After Courageous Battle with Brain Cancer.

by Women Times on

By Prosper Mene 

Mia Love, the trailblazing former U.S. Representative from Utah and the first Black Republican woman elected to Congress, passed away peacefully on Sunday, March 23, 2025, at her home in Saratoga Springs. She was 49.

Love’s death, announced by her family on social media, marks the end of a three-year struggle with glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer, which she faced with the same resilience that defined her groundbreaking political career.

“With grateful hearts filled to overflowing for the profound influence of Mia on our lives, we want you to know that she passed away peacefully today,” her family wrote in a statement posted on Social media. “In the midst of a celebration of her life and an avalanche of happy memories, Mia quietly slipped the bands of mortality and, as her words and vision always did, soared heavenward.”

Love’s journey began as the daughter of Haitian immigrants, a narrative she often shared as a testament to the American dream. Elected in 2014 to represent Utah’s 4th Congressional District, she served two terms until 2018, breaking barriers as a Black Republican woman in a predominantly white, conservative state. Before Congress, she was a city councilwoman and mayor of Saratoga Springs, roles that shaped her belief in limited government and community-driven solutions.

Diagnosed with glioblastoma in March 2022, Love outlived her initial prognosis of 10 to 15 months, a testament to her tenacity. Earlier this month, her daughter Abigale revealed that the cancer had stopped responding to treatment, shifting the family’s focus to cherishing their remaining time together. Love’s final public words, in an open letter published by Deseret News on March 11, expressed gratitude and hope for America’s future, underscoring her enduring optimism.

Her death has drawn an outpouring of tributes. Utah Governor Spencer Cox called her a “true friend” and “trailblazer,” while Senator Mike Lee praised her as a “dear friend” whose legacy inspired countless Utahns. Former colleague Adam Kinzinger and CNN’s Jake Tapper also expressed condolences, reflecting her broad impact across political and media spheres.

Love’s political career was not without controversy. After losing her seat in 2018 to Democrat Ben McAdams by fewer than 700 votes, President Donald Trump publicly mocked her, saying, “Mia Love gave me no love, and she lost. Sorry about that, Mia.” Undeterred, she transitioned to a role as a CNN political commentator and remained a vocal figure, denouncing political violence as recently as July 2024.

Survived by her husband Jason and their three children—Alessa, Abi, and Peyton—Love leaves behind a legacy of service, courage, and historic firsts. Her family has promised details on funeral services and a public celebration of her life in the coming days.

Nigerian Diaspora Women Illuminate Global Stage at STEM Conference.

by Women Times on

By Prosper Mene 

Nigerian women in the diaspora claimed the spotlight today at the 2025 Women in STEM Conference in London, showcasing groundbreaking innovations and reinforcing their role as trailblazers in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The event, held at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre, drew hundreds of attendees from across the globe, with Nigerian voices resonating powerfully amid discussions on bridging the gender gap in STEM fields.

Dr. Ngozi Okeke, a UK-based engineer originally from Lagos, captivated the audience with her keynote address, unveiling a prototype for a low-cost solar energy system designed to electrify rural African communities. “Growing up with unreliable power taught me resilience and ingenuity,” she said, dedicating her work to the next generation of Nigerian girls dreaming of STEM careers. Her presentation earned a standing ovation, with attendees noting its potential to revolutionize energy access in developing regions.

Meanwhile, Tolu Adebayo, a software developer from Ibadan now living in Manchester, led a workshop on artificial intelligence applications for healthcare, highlighting a new algorithm she developed to improve early disease detection in underserved populations. “This is about using tech to save lives where it’s needed most,” Adebayo told reporters, emphasizing her roots as a driving force behind her innovation.

The conference, coinciding with ongoing global efforts following International Women’s Day earlier this month, underscored the contributions of Nigerian diaspora women to tackling worldwide challenges. Organizers praised their presence as a testament to the growing influence of African women in STEM, with one panelist remarking, “These women are not just participating—they’re leading.”

Back in Nigeria, the event sparked pride and conversation online, with hashtags like #NigerianWomenInSTEM trending as citizens celebrated their compatriots’ achievements abroad. The success of Okeke, Adebayo, and others at today’s conference highlights the vital role of the Nigerian diaspora in shaping a more inclusive and innovative global STEM landscape.

Nigerian Women Entrepreneurs Persist Amid Challenges, Driven by Quest for Stability.

by Women Times on

By Prosper Mene 

A recent report by Mastercard, first published by Businessday NG on 5 March, continues to resonate across Nigeria, shedding light on the motivations of female entrepreneurs. The study revealed that over 90% of Nigerian women are driven to start their own businesses by a desire for financial security, with a particular emphasis on achieving independence and establishing a safety net. This trend is especially pronounced among younger generations, namely millennials and Gen Z, who are increasingly taking their futures into their own hands.

Since the report’s release, it has sparked widespread discussion. Many women who have ventured into entrepreneurship acknowledge the difficulties but view it as a preferable alternative to reliance on others or an uncertain job market. Amaka, a hairdresser in Lagos, shared her perspective: “I opened my salon because I refused to live at the mercy of others. Rent is steep and power supply is unreliable, but I can now provide for my child and rest easier knowing I control my income.”

The Mastercard findings highlight a burgeoning entrepreneurial spirit, particularly among young women fresh from education or balancing side ventures. Rather than waiting for traditional employment opportunities, which are often scarce, they are launching small retail outlets, engaging in e-commerce, or offering services such as catering to secure their livelihoods.

However, the path is not without obstacles. Entrepreneurs frequently cite challenges such as taxation, poor infrastructure, and inconsistent electricity as significant hurdles. Despite these difficulties, their resolve remains unshaken. Chioma, a trader in Abuja, remarked, “I may not have everything I need, but I’m determined to ensure my children don’t endure the struggles I’ve faced.”

Observers suggest that this wave of determination could transform Nigeria’s economic landscape if supported by government initiatives, such as accessible loans or improved market conditions. For now, these women continue to forge ahead, demonstrating remarkable resilience and a refusal to be deterred.

Controversy Surrounds NYSC Corps Member Raye Over Criticism of Scheme and Government.

by Women Times on

By Prosper Mene

 

A National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member, identified as Raye, has found herself at the centre of a growing controversy after publicly criticising the NYSC and the Nigerian government. In a widely circulated video, the young woman, dressed in her official khaki uniform, expressed frustration over what she described as unfulfilled promises to corps members and broader issues of poor governance. Her candid remarks have ignited a fierce debate across the nation.

Rather than receiving widespread praise for her courage, Raye has faced significant backlash from some quarters.

Critics argue that her comments violate NYSC regulations, though a closer examination of the scheme’s bylaws reveals no explicit rule prohibiting such statements. The response from the public has been sharply divided, with some labelling her actions disrespectful, while others laud her as a voice for a disenchanted generation.

Adding weight to the discourse, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has publicly commended Raye, describing her as a “shining star” among Nigerian youth. In a statement, he likened her boldness to that of historical figures such as Gambo Sawaba and Funmilayo Ransome-Kuti, celebrated activists known for their fearless advocacy. Atiku urged authorities to nurture rather than suppress such outspokenness, framing it as a sign of leadership potential.

Reports suggest that NYSC officials have taken disciplinary action, with allegations that Raye was summoned to a panel in Eti-Osa, Lagos, to answer for her statements. However, questions remain about the legal basis for any sanctions, as some observers, including an X user named Ebenezar, have pointed out the absence of a clear breach of protocol in the NYSC guidelines.

The situation has sparked a broader conversation about freedom of expression within the NYSC and the plight of Nigerian youth. Supporters have rallied under calls to “Free Raye,” arguing that her critique reflects widespread discontent, while detractors insist she overstepped the bounds of decorum expected from a corps member. As the controversy unfolds, Raye remains resolute, her stance unwavering amid the mounting pressure.

With Atiku’s endorsement amplifying her cause, the incident raises critical questions: Will the NYSC succeed in silencing this dissenting voice, or could Raye’s defiance mark the beginning of a larger movement among Nigeria’s youth? For now, the nation watches closely as this unfolding drama tests the boundaries of authority and individual conviction.

Senator Natasha vs. Akpabio: Scandal Deepens as Probes and Protests Escalate.

by Women Times on

By Prosper Mene 

 

 

The political firestorm between Senator Natasha Akpoti-Uduaghan and Senate President Godswill Akpabio shows no signs of coming to an end as of March 17, 2025, with fresh developments intensifying Nigeria’s most gripping legislative controversy of the year. What began as an allegation of sexual harassment has spiraled into a saga of suspensions, legal battles, and now security agency involvement, spotlighting issues of power, gender, and justice in Nigeria’s Senate.

Latest Developments: On March 11, 2025, Senator Natasha, the first female senator from Kogi Central, addressed the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU) at a United Nations forum in New York, alleging her six-month suspension from the Senate—effective March 6—was retaliation for rejecting Akpabio’s alleged sexual advances. She claimed the Senate President propositioned her, tying legislative favors to personal demands, a charge Akpabio vehemently denies. The Senate insists her suspension stemmed from “gross misconduct” over a seating dispute, not her harassment claims, which were dismissed on procedural grounds.

This week, the plot thickened as reports emerged that the Department of State Services (DSS) and National Intelligence Agency (NIA) are probing Natasha’s unauthorized trip to the IPU meeting.

 

The move has fueled accusations from her supporters that the government is using state machinery to intimidate her, with protests erupting in Abuja and Lagos under hashtags like #WeAreAllNatasha.

Legal and Public Backlash: Natasha has escalated her fight, filing a contempt suit against Akpabio and Senate officials on March 13 at the Federal High Court in Abuja, challenging her suspension as unlawful. The court had previously, on March 4, restrained the Senate from disciplining her pending a hearing, now set for March 20, 2025. Meanwhile, Akpabio’s camp asserts the IPU lacks jurisdiction over Senate affairs, with his aide, Eseme Eyiboh, dismissing calls for him to testify internationally.

Public reaction remains polarized. Women’s rights groups and civil society organizations, including a coalition from Edo State, have rallied behind Natasha, condemning what they call a “misogynistic” silencing of a rare female voice in the 109-seat Senate, where women hold just four seats. Critics, however, including political analyst Omotayo Yusuf, question her evidence, urging her to substantiate claims that have gripped national discourse since her February 28 Arise TV interview.

The Bigger Picture: The scandal has reignited debates about gender-based violence in Nigerian politics. Natasha’s suspension leaves the Senate with only three female lawmakers, amplifying calls for reform. Her allegations echo past tensions with Akpabio, who apologized in July 2024 for a “nightclub” remark aimed at her, suggesting a pattern of friction. Political economist Pat Utomi has accused Akpabio of worse conduct than Natasha’s alleged breaches, pointing to a double standard.

What’s Next?: As the DSS probe unfolds and the court date clock ticks, Nigeria watches a high-stakes showdown. Will Natasha’s evidence—if presented—vindicate her, or will Akpabio’s defense hold sway? For now, the scandal remains a lightning rod, exposing fault lines in power and privilege.

Sierra Leone’s President Bags Two African Continental Awards for Leadership in Gender Equality, Girl-Child Education

by Women Times on

Dr. Julius Maada Bio, the president of Sierra Leone, has been honored with two prestigious continental awards in recognition of his transformative leadership and unwavering commitment to advancing gender equality, girl-child education, and human capital development in Sierra Leone.

The African HeForShe Champion of the Year 2024 and the Presidential African Intelligence Award 2024 were presented to President Bio by Her Excellency Dr. Joyce Banda, former President of Malawi and founder of the Joyce Banda Foundation, alongside Princess Dr. Ocansey, founder of the Nakotech Centre for Excellence.

Declaring the purpose of the award ceremony, the Press Secretary, Yusuf Keketorma Sandi, welcomed the esteemed guests on behalf of President Bio and described the occasion as one that honors an exceptional leader whose dedication has significantly impacted his country. He emphasized that these awards are not just accolades but symbols of Africa’s aspiration for leadership rooted in integrity, commitment, and progress.

Former Malawian President Dr. Joyce Banda stated that she and her delegation traveled to Freetown to honor one of Africa’s most distinguished leaders, having closely followed President Bio’s remarkable efforts in promoting gender equality and empowering women. She acknowledged that, although Africa has six female presidents, with another expected in Namibia, only a few male leaders actively champion the rights and protection of women and girls.

She commended First Lady Dr. Fatima Maada Bio for her steadfast support and advocacy in advancing gender equality in Sierra Leone, highlighting that President Bio’s commitment is not merely rhetorical but evident in his policy decisions. She applauded his administration’s deliberate efforts to appoint more women to leadership positions, which have now been enshrined in law, affirming him as a true HeForShe Champion. She further noted that his dedication to human capital development made him a deserving recipient of these prestigious awards.

In his acceptance speech, President Julius Maada Bio expressed profound gratitude for the African HeForShe Champion of the Year Award 2024 and the Presidential African Intelligence Award 2024. He noted that these honors recognize his government’s work in promoting women’s socio-economic empowerment and advancing girl-child education, particularly in STEM fields.

“These awards are not just personal achievements but a testament to the collective efforts of my government and the people of Sierra Leone in fostering education, gender equality, and women’s empowerment. Receiving them from two globally recognized trailblazers in gender advocacy makes them even more significant,” President Bio remarked.

He reaffirmed his administration’s commitment to gender equality, emphasizing that Sierra Leone’s journey has been one of dedication and transformative action. He underscored that gender equality is not just a moral imperative but a fundamental driver of national development, social cohesion, and economic progress.

President Bio highlighted several key initiatives undertaken by his government, including progressive legislative reforms to enhance gender inclusion, increased access to education for girls, particularly in STEM, greater support for women entrepreneurs to foster economic independence, and strengthened measures against gender-based violence to create a safer society for women and girls.

“These are not just policies; they are pathways to a more just and equitable society. While we celebrate progress, we remain fully aware that the road ahead is long and demanding,” he stated.

The President also reiterated that gender equality is not solely a women’s issue but a collective responsibility requiring the unwavering commitment of men and boys as allies.

“I dedicate this award to every girl who dares to dream beyond societal limitations, every woman who strives against the odds, and every man who believes in and actively advocates for gender equality. Together, we can make a significant difference,” he concluded.

Breaking Barriers: The Historic Appointment of Kano’s First Female Police Commissioner, CP Hauwa Ibrahim

by Women Times on

By Mene Prosper

CP Hauwa Ibrahim, born on October 28, 1972, in the Fagge Local Government Area of Kano State, has achieved a groundbreaking milestone by becoming the first female Commissioner of Police in Kano, notably hailing from the North West of Nigeria. Her educational journey began at Fagge Primary School and continued at Government Girls College (GGC) Dala, laying the foundation for her further academic pursuits. She earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Political Science before advancing her education with a Postgraduate Diploma and a Master of Science in Security and Strategic Studies. Currently, she is pursuing a Ph.D. in the same field, demonstrating her commitment to understanding and improving security practices.

Her career in the Nigerian Police Force has been marked by dedication and excellence, leading her through various ranks to become one of the most respected female officers in the country. CP Hauwa Ibrahim’s appointment was officially recognized in a ceremony at the Kano State Government House, where she was honored by His Excellency Governor Abba K. Yusuf. This event not only celebrated her personal achievement but also symbolized a step toward gender parity in Nigeria’s law enforcement.

The announcement of her appointment sparked considerable discussion across social media platforms, especially on X (formerly Twitter), where users expressed pride, hope, and calls for further action. Her rise to this position has been seen as a breakthrough, challenging the longstanding “glass ceiling” that has limited women’s advancement in the police force. This narrative has ignited conversations about the need for systemic changes to foster an environment where women can thrive in leadership roles within law enforcement.

CP Hauwa Ibrahim’s role is not just about breaking barriers; it is seen as an opportunity for her to influence policy, address issues such as police brutality and corruption, and promote gender-inclusive practices.
