Samia Yaba Nkrumah, the daughter of Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah says there must be more women in government especially at the decision-making level across board.
The independent candidate for Jomoro Constituency said in an interview with Citi FM,
“There must be more women in government at the decision-making level across the board. No genuine change happens without the active participation of women. We can see that in our history and our independence struggle became successful because of women’s participation with their minds and finances. Women were one of the biggest contributors or sponsors of the independence movement.”
Things like the passage of the Affirmative Action Bill and things like making sure that there is education for women will help us to achieve that. A just-society cannot leave any constituency behind. Modern-day Ghana emerged with that philosophy of fairness, justice and that way of thinking meant that women had to be right there beside men as being preached by ACTWAR,”she added .
