The League of Women Voters of Nigeria (NILOWV), is an all-female organization founded in 1986 by Dr Esther Uduehi following the end of the fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, China, in 1985, to help women play a larger role in Government and Public Affairs in Nigeria in consonance with the Beijing Declaration and the Platform for Action. It was incorporated in October, 1988 as a Non-Partisan, non-Religious, non-Sectional, non-tribal, non-Sectarian and non-Profit Civic Organization with the aim of Empowering women Voters in particular and Defending Democracy.

NILOWV QUOTES
“We need women at all levels, including the top, to change the dynamic, reshape the conversation, to make sure women’s voices are heard and heeded, not overlooked and ignored.”
Sheryl Sandberg
“No other policy is as sure to improve nutrition and promote health …..No other policy is as powerful in increasing the chances of education for the next generation. And I would also venture that no policy is more important in preventing conflict, or in achieving reconciliation after a conflict has ended”
Nilowv’s mantra of Empowering the Women politically and Economically for National Development we believe is key to Nigeria’s Development
RT HON DAME ESTHER UDUEHI, KSG, PHD, FNIM, LSM, JP
President
In Nigeria the story of gender inequality is very pathetic, and as I have always said, it cries to high heaven! Nigeria will be a better country and a stronger economy if and only if it embraces and acknowledges the rights of women and their importance in building a just, free and economic society
