dc.description.abstractThe Beijing declaration prescribes a 30% representation of women in elective and appointive positions. The United Nation’s states parties have the mandate to combat all forms of discrimination against women through appropriate legislative, institutional and further, by taking other measures. The work examines the prospects of equal participation and cultural challenges embedded in the indigenous legal tradition and in the patriarchy system. It examines particularly the culture which denies the girl education desired to function in political offices. Global visioning on women political participation is a workable experience except for the challenges posed by cultural practices. The prospects and challenges are considered on the basis that if most of the Nigerian women are not educated as to being fit for political offices, and if those that are competent and eligible to vie for political offices do not have the fund to finance their political activities, the political integration of the women remains an ideal.en_US
