Gombe Women Agenda has mobilised stakeholders to support its charter of demands for greater women’s inclusion in governance ahead of the 2027 elections.

The initiative, launched in the northeastern Nigerian state of Gombe, seeks to increase the representation of women in political decision‑making bodies.

According to the agenda, the charter outlines a set of demands aimed at ensuring that women have a stronger voice in the upcoming electoral process.

Stakeholders involved in the mobilisation include local politicians, civil society organisations and community leaders who have pledged their backing for the agenda’s objectives.

The push comes as Nigeria prepares for the 2027 general elections, a period during which women’s participation in governance remains a critical issue.
