APC Senate Aspirant and Gender Equality Advocate, Princess Olatorera Majekodunmi-Oniru Declares Nigeria's 35% Affirmative Action a Historic Moment For Women To Rise, Run and Win



In response to a recent ruling in Federal High Court Abuja that declared it an obligation for Nigerian Government to implement 35% affirmative action for women in government appointive positions, Princess Olatorera Majekodunmi-Oniru, a Senate Aspirant for Ogun Central is calling on women to harken to this historic moment and rise, run and win.

"It is time to bridge the inequality gap, if you have what it takes to contribute to greater Nigeria, rise up boldly, run courageously and do all it takes to win. Our children must live in a developed Nigeria. Our Children must have the highest quality education in Nigerian schools. We must have policies that unite and move us forward. We must have stable electricity, infrastructural developments, clean environments, good food and good healthcare. 2023 elections will be historical, change must come, Nigeria will be great and we must achieve greatness together." The Senate Aspirant declared

Majekodunmi-Oniru also stated that the 35% affirmative action should effectively apply to both appointive and elective positions. "Political parties must seek out the best women leaders and support them in attaining appointive and elective positions. Every qualified and capable citizen that expresses interest in government leadership deserves a fair chance but women candidates should be given priority in the nomination process in order to bridge the decades-long inequality gap. The affirmative action should also increase overtime from 35% to 50%; after all, women constitute half of our population and greater equality means greater progress which means greater Nigeria."

Majekodunmi-Oniru additionally appreciated the decision of the APC party to significantly reduce nomination fees for women and congratulated Governor of Ogun State, Prince Dapo Abiodun for signing the executive order for 35% women representation in government and politics. As a woman, Olatorera Majekodunmi-Oniru's chances of representing Ogun Central in the Senate are very high considering the mandatory 35% Affirmative Action.
