Buhari made the comment in reaction to an interview granted to BBC by his wife in which she said his government had been hijacked. He received a lot of criticism from Nigerians on social media and the long list doesn't exclude Nollywood actress, Hilda Dokubo.
According to the veteran who runs an NGO called CREATE - Centre for Creative Arts Education, aimed at using creative arts to empower young people and women, "My name is Hilda Dokubo and I am a woman. I do not belong to the kitchen, I go to the kitchen to fix food for my family and myself, we eat there sometimes. I do not belong there. I do not belong to the bedroom either, I sleep there. My things are there but I do not belong there. It is my rest place. I do not belong to the sitting room, it's a lounging place I rest there," she said in a passionate video.
Dokubo was appointed as a Special Adviser to the former Rivers State Governor, Dr. Peter Odili in 2003.
