Tinubu: I Was Expecting That Women Would Get About 35% But We're Getting 19% In Tinubu Cabinet–Saleh
According to Fatima Saleh, Secretary of the Women in Politics Forum, the President should have chosen more women for his cabinet than the 19% of ministers he chose out of a total of 45 positions. Fatima Saleh, who spoke with AIT this afternoon, claimed that despite promises made before the election to increase the number of women in the president’s cabinet, those promises have not yet been kept. She claimed that with all the hope renewal and renewed hope made during the election campaign she felt so bad that women couldn’t get minimum of 35% of Tinubu’s Cabinet.
“First and foremost, I think we haven’t reached the 35% and that’s a disappointment, a big one. I thought with all the hope renewal and renewed hope, I was expecting that we’d be getting about 35% minimum but what are we getting? 19%? In his cabinet where the president has the prerogative to pick whoever he wants to pick with all the promises he made to the women. Most of the women in the cabinet there are all highly qualified, there’s no doubt about that but the ratio is the issue. We are talking about 45 members of a cabinet and we have only 19% of women in there.”
