The All Progressives Congress (APC) has reiterated its commitment to expanding opportunities for women in politics, governance, and leadership, according to the party’s National Secretary.

The party official stated that the APC remains focused on promoting policies and initiatives that encourage greater participation of women in decision-making processes at all levels of government.

According to the secretary, empowering women is essential to achieving inclusive governance and sustainable national development.

The APC noted that efforts are being made to create an enabling environment for women to contest elective offices, assume leadership positions, and contribute meaningfully to the country’s political and economic growth.

The party also emphasized the importance of gender inclusion in public institutions, describing women as critical stakeholders in nation-building.

Political analysts say increased female participation in governance can enhance policy development by bringing diverse perspectives to national issues.

Women advocacy groups have continued to call on political parties to back their commitments with practical measures, including increased nominations, leadership appointments, and support for female candidates.
