She said that President Buhari, in his magnanimity, approved the new Gender policy which recognised 35 per cent affirmative action.
“President Buhari also approved the 45 per cent SME for women.
“President Buhari is committed to making the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) feasible,” she said.
