Respected youth leader leader Lamin K Saidy has put his mouth into a debate that has erupted after the government this week authorized female civil servants to close early to enable them cook for their families.
A debate erupted around the move with some women’s rights activists branding it as sexist. Some said it was designed to condemn women to the kitchen.
Lamin K Saidy wrote Thursday: “Greeter percentage of our women take pride in preparing food for their husbands an family member and that never changed their status as dignified person(s).
“Again, the tragedy is that most of us are not practicing what we preaching to the young ones.
“Most women desires the contrary….they wanna cook for their husbands.
“I support women empowerment with the context of religion, harmless cultures etc.”
