 Nigeria's immediate past country director of action aid in Nigeria, Anna Obie, has urged women to actively participate in politics for future elections. The call was made during a quarterly dialogue forum with the Women's Decoders, organized by JDPMC. Obie highlighted the low representation of women in politics and attributed it to the patriarchal practices and called for more recognition and involvement of women and people with disabilities. The forum was aimed to address the issue of women's representation in politics and promote inclusiveness. The involvement of women and people with disabilities in politics and all the strata, both young and old, in the environment is the constituency that we have to, is the quality of bringing in decision-making. They are the ones to make decisions. Don't take decisions on behalf of others without them. So there is nothing without us. You know, there is nothing for us without us. And what we are saying is you need to notice this, because women are your children, women are your daughters. What you are saying is you are blocking the way for your children. You are not looking at whether they have the capacity. Whether they have the capacity or not. Your daughter is going to be educated, highly educated, but she doesn't qualify because she's a woman. What does that say for the future? We need to bring the boy child and the girl child onto the next generation. Hello. Hope you enjoyed the news.
