In a press release on Tuesday, Sydney Jack stated regardless of women’s efforts throughout the nation, the feminine gender stays considerably underrepresented in elected workplaces and resolution‑making positions.

She used the IWD 2026 as a possibility to reiterate the decision for extra elected workplaces and positions for women in Nigeria.

In keeping with her, the nation wants to shut the gender hole whether it is critical about its developmental plight.

“Worldwide Women’s Day reminds us that equality will not be a distant purpose; it’s an pressing mandate. Nigeria’s future will depend on the lively participation of women at each degree of management and resolution‑making. Collectively, we will shut the hole, however provided that we select motion over delay, inclusion over exclusion, and justice over inertia,” she said.
