Aisha Buhari, wife of the president, says the Nigerian armed forces has psychologically oppressed military women by limiting their participation in the fight against insecurity.

 

She said this during the opening ceremony of the defence headquarters maiden annual conference on women peace and security at the National Defence College, Abuja, on Thursday.

 

She said some of the challenges being faced by the armed forces can be solved through the exploration of women potential.

 

Aisha said the limitation to the capability should be stopped, thereby calling for increased deployment of military women in the fight against insecurity.
