Umar Damagum, the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), expressed a strong desire for a woman to become the next President of Nigeria. Damagum
conveyed this sentiment during the PDP International Women’s Day 2024 event held at the party’s national headquarters in Abuja last Friday.
Represented by the PDP National Secretary Samuel Anyanwu, Damagum highlighted the perceived failures of men in leading the present generation of Nigerians.
He stressed the need for a fresh perspective and approach to governance, suggesting that women could bring about positive change.
International Women’s Day, a global celebration of women’s achievements in various domains, served as the backdrop for Damagum’s remarks.
The event aimed to recognize and promote gender equality in social, economic, cultural, and political spheres.
As discussions on the future leadership of Nigeria continue, Damagum’s statement adds a significant voice to the ongoing discourse about inclusivity and diversity in Nigerian politics.
