Nigerian women ’s issues

Published by

Many people in Nigeria still believe that only men should be in positions of power. There are many causes of gender inequality in Nigeria. Some archaic traditions and customs do not permit women to occupy top professions or political offices.

As a result, women in Nigeria face discrimination and violence. Unemployment in Nigeria affects the women more.

This is due to the fact that some women are neglected due to their sex and alleged weaknesses.

With women’s participation in politics and elections, we may see more female candidates for political office in the future.

The old customs and beliefs about women’s roles need to be jettisoned.
