"We’re not meant for the kitchen alone" - Singer

The singer recognised in her speech that all women are capable of notable things, as opposed to being domestic subjects.

 

Alade, who won an award for the Best Female Artiste at the event gave a remark regarding the president's comments stating that his wife, Aishabelongs in the kitchen.

While receiving her award at the Ticketpro Dome, Johannesburg, she said, “Give it up to all the African women in the building.

“We’re not meant for the kitchen alone, we are not meant for the living room alone, we are not meant for the other room alone.
