Gender representation in the governance of the nation has remained radically bias. From 1999 till 2018, the percentage of women occupying positions of authority has fluctuated between 5% to 10%. The female community still remains vastly unrepresented in both executive and legislative positions.

Statistics show that a woman has never been elected president or vice president in Nigeria. No woman has been elected governor of a state. Also, only five females have been appointed deputy governors in any state within almost a decade.

The infographic below gives more details.

Will Nigeria ever have a female president or governor?

Hmmn.. Quite interesting. I don't think we are having any female president or Governor soon. Quite sad.

Huh

Ok

This is a man's world...

Nawaooo

Let's give women chance. They might turn this country around. With bits of luck in every department









Like CROATIAn president . She's gorgeous and gave CROATIA that luck to be in the final. Maybe if we elect a gorgeous lady as president our boys might do well in the next World Cup. She might promise sex to any guy who scored and boom! Even our keeper will try scoring even if it's from post to post.





Am just saying though.. .

This is mainly a cultural thing, nothing personal against wemenz dem.

Story for the gods

should we try a female president?

This is nigeria

Let women work to get those positions. They should not expect to get them on a platter. After all there is a great awareness and fight for gender equality. Go to the field and fight for your perceived rights.

We have had 4 male presidents since 1999. Or was Abdusalam also included in this research?

The power of social may likely shake this gender table to favour women after this thread.

Help is on the way.

90% Bribery and corruption caused by men.
AFRICAN WOMEN SOFT MINDED, SENSIBLE AND BEAUTIFUL -SIR SHINA PETERS 1990.

This is Nigeria, and it's not going to change so soon.

Slay queens should take up the challenge.

That was before feminism

Well the last woman that came up for presidency got only one vote which was hers her fellow women did not vote after all the noise they made for her.

2019: Women politicians strategise on winning elections in Nigeria

This is a man's world...

Only in Nigeria.

Even the female voters won't vote in a female candidate. We don't like ourselves.

You think they can stand this evil heat called Nigeria politics?
You think they can have the mind to order mass genocide and waste lives in the name of religion and ethnic superiority?
You think they can survive EFCC and DSS harassment?
You think they can survive tear gas and police brutality?
You think they can spend billions in renting crowds for rallies?
You think they can sponsor cultists to behead political opponents?

If politics here is all about jumping from one political party to another, taking the best pics for campaign posters and billboards and elections are won by garnering the most likes on social media, then they may stand a chance.

This is Nigeria, shit is all bleeped up and no gender is better.

Women are the greatest influencers. A woman influences her children, influences her spouse, influences her parents, and the society
