  • GENDER, POLITICAL PARTIES and the REPRODUCTION of PATRIARCHY in NIGERIA a Reflection on the Democratisation Process, 1999-2011
    100 JOUR na L OF AFRIC an ELECTIO N S GENDER, POLITICAL PARTIES AND THE REPRODUCTION OF PATRIARCHY IN NIGERIA A Reflection on the Democratisation Process, 1999-2011 A Irene Pogoson Dr A Irene Pogoson is a lecturer in the Department of Political Science, University of Ibadan e-mail: irenepogoson@gmail.com ABSTRACT This article examines issues of women’s involvement in party politics in Nigeria against the background of the 2011 general elections. It explores the influence of patriarchal disposition on women’s participation as well as the extent (or otherwise) to which women are respected and accepted as equal stakeholders in democratic politics and party decision-making organs. It shows that the marginalisation of women defies legal and constitutional guarantees and must be tackled simultaneously with patriarchy by the following means: establishing continuous dialogue between women and men leaders, increasing women’s participation in local elections, endorsing and entrenching a quota system/mechanism in national and political party constitutions, reviewing electoral systems and adopting those most conducive to women’s participation (for example, proportional representation). Political parties should establish legal funds to enable women politicians to challenge electoral malpractices in court. INTRODUCTION Not only do women make up about half the voting population of Nigeria, as they do in most African countries, but most Nigerian women, like those in most of Africa, have had the right to vote since independence. The question is not whether women have the right to vote, but whether their positions, organisations or attempts to influence the quality of their lives by political means are seen to be part of the process of democratic politics or democratisation.
