Amaechi Vows Gender Equality in Cabinet if Elected President in 2027
Former River State Governor Amaechi vows to have a gender-balanced cabinet if he becomes Nigeria's President in 2027, stating that 21 male and 21 female members will fill half of the federal cabinet slots. He made this pledge during an event in Lagos organized by the World Women Organization, highlighting the importance of leadership based on competence rather than gender.
Amaechi, running on the African Democratic Congress (ADC) platform, aims for inclusivity and visibility of women in governance, focusing on their readiness and capacity for roles. He stresses that women in the cabinet should not be symbolic but capable representatives.
