[GIST] NCWS, CSOs seek more women in governance

Guardian Nigeria News https://ift.tt/WTEpKoO

The National Council for Women Societies (NCWS) has commended the House of Representatives for passing for second reading, a bill seeking to amend the Constitution to create extra legislative seats for women in the National and State Assemblies.

It also urged the Senate to concur so that Nigeria can join the ranks of countries that have made significant strides in promoting gender equality in governance.

Recall that a constitutional amendment bill to improve women’s representation in parliament through the introduction of special seats, last Tuesday, scaled second reading in the lower legislative chamber.

Acting National President of NCWS, Geraldine Etuk, while reacting to the development in a statement, said the passage was a landmark achievement and a significant step towards gender equality and representation in Nigeria.

Similarly, a group of civil society organisations and gender activists, yesterday, sought affirmative action to increase women’s representation in the nation’s political leadership space.

They lamented that the current political arrangement in the country was in favour of men. Gender advocate and President of Women in Politics Forum, EbereIfendu, made the appeal during a one-day workshop for civil society organisations (CSOs), with the theme, ‘Coordination and Strategy Meeting on Affirmative Action Reform to Increase Women Political Representations in the Ongoing Constitution Review Process’, in Abuja.

Ifendu said the meeting was to unify efforts towards a common goal of constitutional amendments for affirmative action to increase women’s political representation.

In her remarks, the Founding Director of Women Aid Collective (WACOL), Prof. Joy Ngozi Ezeilo, advocated a conducive environment to encourage more women to participate in politics.

[GIST] Sultanate council: Clerics caution colleagues against misconception

[GIST] Sultanate council: Clerics caution colleagues against misconception

Guardian Nigeria News https://ift.tt/1sZ4Yf2

The Coalition of Northern Youth Imams, on Saturday, cautioned their colleagues against misconception over Sokoto State reform laws, saying the rumour of deposing the Sultan by Sultanate Council was untrue.

The clerics disclosed this during a two-day workshop to sensitise the Muslim clerics and Imams on the need to verify information with regards to the sultanate before making conclusions.

The Chairman of the occasion, Sheikh Abdulrahman Jibril-Funtua-Funtua, said it was part of the teachings of Islam to refrain from spreading rumour and making judgments or conclusions before verification.

He urged the government to prioritise social welfare and development of its people, saying the masses were suffering from inflation, insecurity and devaluation of the Naira.

” Any new policy by the government should be thoroughly checked to see if it would benefit the masses before going public; the imams should also verify information before making a judgment.

“With regards to Samoa deal, if it is true that it supports same-sex marriage, then we do not agree to its implementation because it is against our faith and culture, ” he said.

Jibril -Funtua urged the Federal government to create a commission that would overlook the affairs of traditional institutions, and discard the subordination of the institution to state Governors.

He reiterated the council’s support of the powers of Sultan Abubakar Sa’ad as the Muslim leader in Nigeria, saying, ”I am positive he is beyond Sokoto State.”

Similarly, Imam Rabiu Yahya stated that the clerics were important to society as they enjoined people to embrace good deeds and refrain from evil while enlightening them on the teachings of their religion.

He, however, cautioned the clerics who condemn leaders or government during sermons on issues they were not sure of or have no full knowledge of, saying Islam teaches verification and research before conclusion.
