WOMEN and youths are an integral part of political parties and must be supported in the country, says political parties registrar Emmanuel Pok.
“In the awareness programmes, emphasis must be given to women, youth and people with disabilities as they can get more information out to people who must know the importance of political parties, their roles and functions in a democracy, why it is important to vote for endorsed candidates and to vote for policies of political parties,” he said.
In the launch of its third cooperate plan, the Integrity of Political Parties and Candidates Commission (IPPCC), through the Registry of Political Parties and Candidates aims to continue on the work of strengthening and promoting political parties.
“The key is to identify relevant and practical forms of awareness and the main message is that women are capable as men to encourage and support women in politics,” Pok said.
“They will also be encouraged to be financial members of political parties to allow them to be active members.”
