The National Council of Women Societies (NCWS) in Adamawa has urged Governor Ahmadu Fintiri and political leaders to address women exclusion from political representation in the state.
Rebecca Kwabe, Adamawa State coordinator of NCWS, made the appeal during an advocacy engagement on women inclusion in politics on Friday in Yola.
Kwabe commended Gov. Fintiri for appointing women into leadership positions across the state, including a female deputy governor, and deputy chairpersons in the 21 local government areas.
Kwabe, however, expressed concern over the declining number of women occupying elective political offices in the state.
“We once had three female senators from Adamawa, but today the situation is different.
