ABSTRACT
The
low rate of female participation in politics compared to that of their male
counter- parts in Nigeria creates a need to examine the situation in this
study, “The role of broadcast media in mobilizing women for political
participation in Nigeria”. This study examines the problems, first, defining
the importance of women to participate in politics. The survey research method
was employed in this study and questionnaires were used for data collection,
then the hypotheses were tested using chi-square statistical procedure to reach
a definite conclusion. The results reflect that broadcast media have positive
impact in mobilizing women to participate in politics. In summary, broadcast
media is found wanting in fostering development for gender equality in
politics. In recommendations, suggestion of ways to stimulate female participation
was made by looking at practical examples of how this was done in the
pre-colonial era. Finally, in conclusion, the study emphasizes that no sex or
gender is more important than the other because in politics, intellectual
ability counts more than physical energy.
