Nigeria’s first lady, Remi Tinubu, has been listed in the 100 leading women in Nigeria compendium.
The wife of the Vice President, Mrs Nana Shettima, is also included in the list.
The publication is a biographical compendium on accomplished women leaders in Nigeria to be released today, to mark the 2024 International Women’s Day, according to the Independent.
Other notable female leaders listed are the acting Group Chief Executive Officer of Access Holdings Plc, Bolaji Agbede, and the Minister of State for Police Affairs, Hon. Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim.
The Executive Director of Gender Perspectives, Tammie Kammonke and the CEO of Profiles and Biographies, Kammonke Abam, joint publishers of the annual compendium, made this known in a joint statement issued on Thursday in Abuja.
They said, “In publishing this compendium every year, we envision that we will continue to contribute to gender equality and women empowerment advocacy efforts toward filling the yawning gender gap in the leadership of Nigeria.
“This year’s sterling list of Nigeria’s foremost women leaders is a mixed grill of tech experts, pastors, politicians, teachers, activists, development, practitioners, and C-Suite corporate leaders.”
