The Labour Party in the South-South geopolitical zone is witnessing a renewed wave of women-driven political awakening as Enu Kikanwa Timipre Linda signals readiness to lead an aggressive and inclusive Women Political Mobilisation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Her emergence as the national deputy Women leader for South-South is being widely welcomed by party stakeholders as a strategic move to deepen grassroots engagement, strengthen party structures, and reposition women as a decisive force in Nigeria’s democratic process.
A staunch supporter of the Barrister Julius Abure–led national leadership, Timipre Linda has consistently emphasized party unity, internal democracy, and regional development as core pillars of her mobilisation agenda. She believes that empowering women politically across the South-South will not only consolidate Labour Party’s influence in the region but also translate into broader national impact.
Speaking on the vision, party women leaders highlighted that women must lead Nigeria into a new political era, projecting that the 11th National Assembly could witness unprecedented female leadership if sustained mobilisation and voter education are pursued.
This bold declaration has sparked conversations across Nigeria, reigniting debates on gender inclusion, equity, and leadership competence.
Observers note that the growing momentum around women’s participation within the Labour Party aligns with global democratic trends, reinforcing the argument that women’s political participation is key to building a new Nigeria, one rooted in accountability, social justice, and people-oriented governance.
As preparations for 2027 intensify, the South-South women mobilisation drive under Enu Kikanwa Timipre Linda is expected to play a critical role in reshaping political narratives, energising the grassroots, and positioning women not just as supporters, but as leaders and decision-makers in Nigeria’s future.
