The resource centre is being launched to compliment the current administration in its pursuit to advance women in politics and governance in Nigeria. - Asabe Bashir

The centre will serve as a hub that provides opportunity for female politicians to access information and knowledge products, electronic equipment, internet facilities, counselling and contacts that would enhance female productivity for effective participation in politics.

The “Women Economic Empowerment Training Programme for Female IDPs” is part of the efforts by Maryam Babangida women centre to boost the capacity of women across the country, adding that about sixty women have benefitted from the exercise.

This intervention will go a long way in complementing the efforts of the state towards women empowerment and economic emancipation.
