Editorial Response
By Oluwaseyi Elizabeth Jimoh
Nigerian women are rewriting history with the Special Seats Bill, demanding justice, equity, and representation in governance. Inspired by Rwanda and Senegal’s success, this movement is a bold call for inclusive democracy. The time for symbolic gestures is over—women deserve a seat at the table. The future of Nigeria starts now.
