Bill for Reserved Women Seats in Nigerian Parliament Gains Support

The push for gender inclusion in Nigerian parliament gains momentum as a bill proposing reserved seats for women garners support from various stakeholders, including the UN, UK, and EU. Women's groups in Abuja protest for increased female representation in legislative houses, highlighting the current underrepresentation of women in the National Assembly.

The proposal aims to create additional seats for women at both the national and state levels to enhance gender equality in governance and decision-making processes.
