  ABSTRACT

      Women  in  Nigeria  are  faced  with  various  challenges  both  at  the  private  and  public

sector.  As  a result  of  this,  there  are  gender  imbalance  that  tends  to  take  place  among  both

sexes. There are various gender inequalities that preoccupies the system which ranges from

violence  to  abuses,  discriminations  as  well  as  denial  to  political  offices.  Even  though  the

attainment  of  gender  equality  is  not  only  seen  as  an  end  in  itself,  it  is  equally  an  end  in

ingredients to and a product for the achievement of sustainable development of countries.


 The method of the research work is based on the secondary source of analysis which

is  done  through  the  use  of  journals,  internet  materials  and  other  archival  sources  of

information  which  is  going  to  be  relevant.  Though  Nigeria  as  a  country  with  the  Federal

Ministry  of  Women  Affairs  and  Poverty  Alleviation  and  Nigeria  has  been  a  signatory  to

various international treaties and policies as well.


 Various discoveries has revealed that gender inequality is a great challenge to Nigeria

even as a developing country, such as discriminations that women are faced with including

abuses.  Although,  the  UN  been  an  International  Organization  having  established  various

policies such as the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against

Women (CEDAW) etc. Despite all these policies that have been established for the purpose  

of  nullifying  the  distinction,  exclusion  made  on  the  basis  of  sex,  UN  itself  still  encounters

various problems, such is the fact that women work more than women but are still been paid

low.  With  this  policies,  UN  still  have  its  challenges  such  that  lack  of  women  to  improper

education, cultural and social beliefs of the women, poor recognition of women issues etc are

still some of the challenges the United Nations is facing.


    In conclusion, if all the policies that the United Nation has established coupled with

the treaties that Nigeria has signed are put into effect, it will thus increase the knowledge of

women  as  well  as  curb  barriers  that  are  been  placed  against  women,  such  as  vying  for

political positions, for instance, in Brazil and Germany; they have females as their Presidents

known as Chancellor, Nigeria also can get to that position
