Deputy Governor of Kaduna State, Dr. Hadiza Balarabe
The Deputy Governor of Kaduna State, Dr. Hadiza Balarabe, has urged all women in the state to unite and support women candidates who are capable in the forthcoming general elections.
Balarabe made the call on Tuesday when she received some female aspirants vying for various elective positions on the platform of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) party in Kaduna State.
According to her, women in government currently did not get there because they are women but because they have the capacity, capability and dynamism to perform.
Balarabe said she always dreams to see women aspiring to hold positions of leadership that will give them the opportunity to sit on the table and make decisions as they constitute about 50 per cent of the total population.

“I think the time has come for us to make up our minds to support one another.
“It is time to see that we are one, no matter where we are coming from, we should stand under one roof and be united to support one another.
“Whatever it is if a woman is there, people will always support them, I think we are starting somewhere, this is the time we need one another. We are all women we should look out for one another.
“I am grateful that you are putting yourself together, this the time to mentor so many people, with all the women coming together we are partners, there’s nothing that we cannot achieve,” she said.
Earlier, the pioneer President of Kaduna APC Women Aspirants Forum, Mrs. Vicky Bonaface, said women aspirants have decided to unite under one platform, called Kaduna APC women Aspirants Forum for 2023.
“Not just to contest but also to network amongst ourselves to come up with ideas towards gathering an unprecedented number of votes across the state for our great party APC in the forthcoming general election in 2023.
“We are confident we’ll deliver one million women votes for APC in the 2023 general election,” he said.
