Former Minister of Women Affairs, Uju-Kennedy Ohanenye, has stated that she continues to work on the cases she was handling prior to her dismissal by President Bola Tinubu.
In an interview with Channels TV on Wednesday, Uju-Kennedy clarified that while she was removed from her ministerial position, her commitment to her vision remains intact. “I was sacked, but my visions remain; my visions were not sacked,” she asserted.
She further emphasized that she has continued her legal work, including representing individuals who cannot afford legal representation. “I have been doing all that I was doing when I was the Minister of Women’s Affairs. I still go to court to defend those who can’t defend themselves, those who don’t have money to hire a lawyer,” she explained.
Uju-Kennedy added that she is still actively handling sensitive cases she was involved in before her departure from the cabinet. “I am still managing all the cases I had before I left, and they are quite sensitive cases, so I couldn’t just abandon them,” she said.
Her dismissal from the cabinet came during a reshuffle by President Tinubu in October, in which she was one of five ministers relieved of their duties.
