Ghana: Women Activists Criticise President for Neglecting Their Issues

 

Civil Society groups, women rights activists as well as the Women Caucus in Parliament have expressed their reservations about the President's silence on women and children issues in his state of the nation's address to Parliament.

Many expected President John Evans Atta Mills to give an account of how far the government had gone in increasing women's representation in decision making. According to the women's groups, even though women constitute about 51% of the Ghanaian population, women issues have been relegated to the background by government.
