ADC Commits 40% Party Positions to Women Leadership

On March 8, in commemoration of International Women's Day, Bolaji Abdullahi, the spokesperson for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), announced the party's commitment to reserving 40% of its positions for women across all levels of its structure. Abdullahi emphasized the critical role women play in nation-building and acknowledged their significant contributions in various sectors, including home, community, and the workplace.

He noted that despite carrying a disproportionate share of Nigeria's social and economic responsibilities, women remain significantly underrepresented in leadership positions. The ADC aims to change this narrative by ensuring women's full integration into the party's leadership structure.

Abdullahi reaffirmed the party's dedication to gender inclusivity in political participation, highlighting that empowering women is essential for strengthening Nigeria's democracy and ensuring inclusive governance for sustainable national development.
