Women’s Minister Leads 10 Million Vote Drive for Tinubu

Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim, the Minister of Women Affairs and Social Development, stated that Nigerian women are organizing to deliver 10 million votes for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Vice-President Kashim Shettima in the 2027 general elections. This announcement was made during a national Muslim women’s prayer session organized by the Power of 10 Million Movement in collaboration with the Nasrul-Lahi-L-Fatih Society (NASFAT) and the Federation of Muslim Women’s Associations in Nigeria (FOMWAN).

Sulaiman-Ibrahim emphasized that the initiative aims to unify women from various backgrounds and political affiliations to support the Tinubu administration's continuity agenda, highlighting its gender-friendly policies. She noted that the movement intends to leverage the voting strength of organized women’s groups, particularly those with Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).

The minister expressed appreciation for the administration's focus on issues affecting women and children, including child protection and economic empowerment. She also mentioned that similar initiatives would extend beyond the Muslim community, with Christian women planning a prayer session for divine guidance ahead of the elections.
