The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has vowed to prioritize the inclusion of women in leadership positions as part of its strategy for the 2027 general elections. Party officials stated that promoting gender equality in governance is central to ADC’s vision of a more representative and accountable government.
According to the party, women will be given strategic roles in decision-making processes, policy formulation, and party administration to ensure that their voices are adequately represented. ADC leaders emphasized that the move is not only a matter of fairness but also a practical step toward harnessing the skills and perspectives of women, which are essential for sustainable development.
The party also outlined plans to mentor and support female candidates across all levels of government, providing training, resources, and advocacy platforms to enhance their electoral competitiveness. Officials highlighted that the commitment aligns with global best practices in inclusive governance and reflects a growing recognition that women’s participation strengthens democratic processes.
Observers note that ADC’s promise comes amid broader debates on gender representation in Nigerian politics, where women remain significantly underrepresented. Political analysts believe that the party’s focus on women could influence voter perception, attract youth and progressive voters, and set a benchmark for other parties ahead of the 2027 elections.
