The President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan has again stressed the need for more participation of women in governance and other spheres of life.
“At the moment, we are amending our 1999 Constitution and we hope by the time the constitution review is concluded, we would have provided affirmative action for women to be in the National Assembly. The Senate President, in response to an earlier comment by his guests, also spoke on the relevance of girl child education.
The Senate President also suggested how the ECOWAS parliament could be made more relevant to the member-states in the West African sub-region. “Those of us who are in ECOWAS parliament, we should continue to work hard and then in our national parliaments, the resolutions that we have passed here in the ECOWAS parliament should be presented to our national parliaments so that the resolutions are domesticated, done in such a way that our governments will listen and implement those resolutions. At the moment, maybe that is not the process.
