The event was on the power of women in achieving food security.
In a clip shared by The ICIR on X (formerly Twitter), the minister could be heard saying: “She (the organiser) has been arrested. She should have reorganised herself, used her name to design the invitation and used her name to do this, not to use the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs.
“I can’t allow this programme to go on. I’m sorry about this. This is pure impersonation and the President is not happy about it.
“I’m saying it. Let the media cover it. You don’t do this. You don’t take the ministry for granted. For what?”
