Women in Northern Nigeria politics and the media

Dr Maimuna Babangida explores how biased media coverage contributes to the under-representation of women in Northern Nigeria politics. The media is a vital instrument of social control. It controls voter perception of contestants and has often led to the marginalisation of women in political scenes.
