The Chairman, Nasarawa State House of Assembly Committee on Women Affairs, Hajara Danyaro Ibrahim on Thursday, urged Nigerian women to support themselves for political positions to enable them participate actively and contribute positively to the development of the society.

She also urged women to actively participate in politics in their various constituencies to be heard and contribute positively in governance for the interest of the country.
“Let’s actively participate in politics to contribute positively to the development of the society. The problem is that we women see ourselves as enemies, especially when a woman is contesting for political positions.It is the same woman/ women that will say we will not support and vote for ourselves”.
“It is the same women that will complain of marginalization. It will be the same we, women that are doing this to ourselves and we have been complaining that women don’t get more positions/ appointments ” she lamented.
The lawmaker, while assuring the womenfolk of her readiness to be the voice of the women as well as protect their interest while performing her duties, appreciated Governor Abdullahi Sule for appointing women into government positions
She, however, appealed for more appointments of women in that direction.
