Senator Remi Tinubu, has said she's forgiven Sen. Dino Melaye for the insults he hurled at her during a closed senate session.
According to her, she met Senate President Bukola Saraki on Tuesday and as a Christian, said she's forgiven Melaye for his behaviour.
"But the point is that what people don’t realise is that I am a very reserved person," she continued. “After I gave my word to him (Saraki) yesterday, I told myself that at 55 I am not a wimp of anybody.
“I witnessed the Sani Abacha regime and I know what I saw and why I am committed to this cause. But now, my hands are tied to say I forgive people. I am a Christian; when I give my word, I must abide by it. But I am not scared to follow this through.
“I am not championing a cause for women. I am only standing in my space and if my space is encroached upon, I have to fight back. Rosa Parks wasn’t an activist; she just decided to sit in her space and not give up her space anybody in a bus. And that sent a message.
