The National Council of Women Societies (NCWS) says parties seeking women’s vote in 2019 elections must show commitment to empower women or lose their vote.
It comes ahead of a national women political summit in Abuja next week to give women and young people a “stronger voice to make a difference in governance,” said president of NCWS Laraba Shoda.
“Women will be mobilised to vote only for parties that have made concrete effort to allow women occupy strategic positions in their party structure, elective offices and political appointment,” she said.
