Nigerian women in Politics

Nigerian women in Politics have not until now involve themselves at the top level in politics and governance, however the present administration of president Goodluck Jonathan has changed the tide and we now have women occupying key sensitive areas of the economy, these include; oil and gas {the major source of income for the country} , and finance. In the political arena, the likes of:

  • Professor Dora Akunyili {former director of NAFDAC}
