Happy Democracy Day, Nigeria!
Today, we celebrate Nigeria’s journey of democracy—a symbol of our collective resilience, strength, and shared commitment to national progress.
As we commemorate this milestone, it is important to remember that democracy is incomplete without inclusion. Women must be empowered to participate fully, equally, and safely in all sectors—be it in the workplace, in business, or within the legal profession.
We must ensure that every woman in Nigeria is free from fear, harassment, intimidation, and victimization. An enabling environment where women can thrive is not just a necessity—it is a democratic imperative.
Nigeria can only be truly democratic when Nigerian women are truly free and independent.
Happy Democracy Day to Nigeria.
Happy Democracy Day to Nigerian Women.
Happy Democracy Day to Nigerian Women Lawyers.
Signed,
Sadiya Sule
