That is, &#8220;government of the people by the people and for the people.&#8221; And a system whereby power is vested in elected representatives who are expected to be accountable to those who elected them. Not only are the elected members\u00a0 expected to represent the interest of their people, but should ensure transparency, protection of individual rights and freedom. In terms of freedom of speech, the law however ensures some level of cautioned.<\/p>\n<p>Explaining further, democracy is supposed to provide an enabling environment, encourage economic growth and development including social services and infrastructure. Providing basic needs for the people is paramount. He added. Also, citizens are expected to be carried along in any aspect of governance.<\/p>\n<p>In a democratic government, nobody is above the law.<\/p>\n<p>The representative of the professor speaking on the role of democracy in empowering women stated that if only the women understand the power they have in any community, then women will rule every community.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Democracy should protect women from discrimination and violence. The fact that we are living in a parochial society whereby men dominate makes the<\/p>\n<p>story about women in politics sad.\u00a0 Women are being discriminated against and disrespected&#8221;. He called\u00a0 on women to stand with their shoulders high to get what they want. Saying politics is never for men but for everybody.<\/p>\n<p>Democracy should provide platform for women to flourish. Women by nature are home makers and that makes them\u00a0 better problem solvers, capable of finding solutions to the nation&#8217;s problems.<\/p>\n<p>The women must wake from their sleep.

The inclusiveness and love shown towards them by the movement while promising their participation in politics if given favourable conditions. She emphasised on doing away with barriers that militate against effective participation in politics. For example, structures not designed to suit their conditions. Like not being able to climb some places.<\/p>\n<p>Contributing, the President, Jama&#8217;atu Matan Arewa, Hajiya\u00a0 Rabi Salawa pointed out the stereotype attitude of the women towards their fellow women vying for political position as militating against them. She cited a one time\u00a0 presidential candidate, Serah Jibril who had just her vote\u00a0 in the mist of multitude of Nigerian women. Only her vote counted.<\/p>\n<p>This is not a healthy situation for women if they must excel in politics. Many argued. And the idea of women stuck to the position of women leader should be eliminated. Women should learn to aim at higher and Juicy positions. The fora posited.<\/p>\n<p>In as much as women are blamed for being enemies of themselves, it was equally noted that women in the corridors of power\u00a0 hardly assist their fellow women who assisted them to get there. Rather, they assist the men. This attitude needs to change if women must get it right and compete favourably with the men. The fora stressed. Of<\/p>\n<p>Chairman planning committee, Mall.
