... Dr. Oluebube Rallies Women to Lead Boldly, Champion Inclusion and Drive Change.
A powerful call for women to take the lead in shaping a more inclusive and progressive society took centre stage in Umuahia as High Chief Oluebube A. Chukwu delivered a stirring address on gender inclusion and responsible communication.
Speaking at the Nigerian Institute of Public Relations Abia State Chapter event commemorating International Women’s Day, Dr. Chukwu declared that no nation can truly develop without empowering its women and amplifying their voices.
Anchored on the theme, “Give to Gain: Driving Gender Inclusion and Collective Growth Through Responsible Communication,” he described the concept as a game-changing philosophy capable of transforming individuals, institutions, and entire communities.
He urged women and professionals alike to embrace selfless contribution by giving their time, talent, and resources, noting that such actions build stronger networks, enhance credibility, and unlock long-term opportunities.
“When you give of yourself, you unlock growth, not just for others, but for society as a whole,” he emphasized.
Dr. Chukwu stressed that women inclusion remains a catalyst for stronger communities, improved healthcare, better education, and economic growth, insisting that Nigeria’s progress is closely tied to how well it supports its women and girls.
He further challenged members of the institute to leverage the vast opportunities within NIPR, including professional development, networking, and global exposure, describing the organization as a strategic platform for influence and career advancement.
Highlighting the role of communication, he called for intentional, responsible engagement, urging women to break stereotypes, speak with empathy, and build platforms that promote respect and inclusivity.
Citing inspiring figures like Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala and Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, he noted that Nigerian women continue to make remarkable global impact.
He concluded with a passionate charge for women to rise boldly, lead fearlessly, and use their voices to drive meaningful change across all sectors of society.
