Nigeria's First Women's Leadership Report Reveals Stark Gender Gap

View descriptionShare

Nigeria has published its first comprehensive State of Women's Leadership Report 2025, highlighting the low representation of women in politics and business. According to the report by the Women in Leadership Advancement Network (WILAN) Global, women hold just 4.5% of National Assembly seats, occupy only 8 of 48 federal ministerial positions, and have very limited roles in the country's top 50 companies. The findings also point to opportunities for progress through targeted policies, advocacy, and leadership development programs. We speak to Abosede George-Ogan, Founder and Executive Director of WILAN Global, about what the report means for women's leadership in Nigeria.
