Leadership Development for Young Nigerian Women: Oxfam in Nigeria and GOTNI Takes the Lead


Nigeria as one of the largest economies in Africa has been through rigorous stages to enhance livelihood and improve her people’s economy. Leadership has been obviously Africa’s biggest challenge due to negative ideologies such as godfatherism, sit-tight leadership and mediocre leadership largely due to the dearth of leadership grooming. Nigeria remains the hope of Africa and at the wake of women empowerment and investment in women, Oxfam in Nigeria has been at the forefront of bridging the leadership gap among women.

Recently, Oxfam has identified with the socio-political need for Nigerian especially in her women, and partnered with Nigeria’s premiere leadership grooming organisation, Guardians of the Nation International (GOTNI) for this onerous task since 2014.
