The Minister of Women Affairs, Dame Pauline Tallen, in Abuja on Saturday, picked holes in the judgement of a Federal High Court which nullified the All Progressives Congress 2023 governorship elections primary in Adamawa State.
But Tallen in an interview with journalists on the sidelines of the first Global Reunion and Annual General Meeting of the Federal Government Girls’ College, Bida Old Girls Association, said the court ruling showed the continued marginalisation of women in politics.
Tallen said, “It is very worrisome. I feel like shedding tears, my heart is broken because all the political parties have not done well to women. And again, my heart beats, I am sure you heard the judgement on Adamawa that concerns the only female governorship candidate in the state. The court is declaring that the party has no candidate. This is unacceptable, it is like a kangaroo judgement but we will not give up.
