    The Minister of Women Affairs, Hajiya Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim, has called for increased commitment and action from Nigerian women towards inclusive governance, economic participation, and national development.

    She made the call at a one-day town hall meeting and citizen engagement in Abuja.
    “The reason why we are here is because we want what is best for ourselves, for the Nigerian women, for our community, for our families.”

    The minister underscored the importance of the proposed special reserve seats bill at the national assembly, which aims to ensure fair representation of women in governance.
    She highlighted how women must be strategic, united and forward-thinking in their pursuit of political and economic empowerment.
    “We are the voting strength of this country; we and our children. That gives us the permission to negotiate for anything because we will stick to our words. We have to be masters in negotiating.
    “We have to strengthen our mechanisms. We have to mentor ourselves. Days are gone when five women come out for one seat and split the votes,” stated Ms Sulaiman-Ibrahim.

    Hauwa Ibrahim, wife of the Ona of Abaji and president of the FCT Traditional Rulers Wives Association, praised the collaborative and inclusive tone of the engagement, emphasising the importance of women working together to create sustainable change.
    Ms Ibrahim noted that the minister’s efforts resonate with traditional institutions and women leaders across the country, stating that collaboration and shared responsibility are key to progress.
    Adedayo Benjamins-Laniyi, mandate secretary of the FCT Women Affairs Secretariat, expressed optimism about the progress made under the current administration and the opportunities ahead for women in Abuja.
    Ms Benjamins-Laniyi commended the minister’s leadership and inspiring vision that encourages all women to unite and work toward shared goals.
    Ruth Agbo, president of the Association of Women in Trade and Agriculture, commended the resilience and determination of Nigerian women, stating that they are poised to drive agricultural productivity and trade growth.
    She, however, stated the need for equipment and support to enable women to realise this potential fully.
    The permanent secretary of the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs, Dr Maryam Keshinro, said the engagement has demonstrated a firm resolve and dedication among women in the country to take control of their destinies.
    Dr Keshinro also mentioned that the ideas and commitments discussed would translate into concrete actions, propelling Nigerian women to new heights of influence and impact.
