Special aide to former president John Dramani Mahama, Joyce Bawah Mogtari
More room for improvement in the area of women’s representation, this is the verdict of a special aide to former President John Dramani Mahama, Joyce Bawah Mogtari.
“Ghana has done well! But we must do more to ensure that women are well represented everywhere!!” she wrote on Twitter.
She had quoted a tweet from Joe Jackson, the Director of Strategy and Business Operations at Dalex Finance. Jackson was referencing a BBC report which spoke about the 50th anniversary of voting rights for Swiss women.
“The fight for gender equity is about perseverance. We have a long way to go. I found out that Ghana gave women the right to vote long before Switzerland,” he said.
