Nigeria's Reserved Seats for Women Bill is making waves in the constitution review process.

The legislation proposes adding 74 special legislative seats exclusively for women across the National Assembly and State Houses.

Deputy Speaker Benjamin Kalu and 12 other lawmakers are championing this initiative, which would create 37 additional Senate seats, 37 House seats, and 108 state assembly seats reserved only for female candidates over a 16-year period.

Labour Party lawmakers in the House of Representatives have accused President Tinubu and the APC of prioritizing 2027 re-election campaigns over addressing Nigeria's pressing security and welfare challenges.

Led by Rep. Afam Victor Ogene, the LP caucus criticized what they describe as questionable spending priorities, including N17.5 trillion spent on pipeline security contracts in 2024 alone while citizens face worsening insecurity and economic hardship.

Digital spaces should not feel like a battlefield, yet for many women and girls in Nigeria, they still do.

This year’s theme, “UNiTE to End Digital Violence against Women and Girls”, is a reminder that online violence isn’t abstract. It is shaping real lives, silencing voices, and widening existing inequalities.

At OrderPaper Nigeria, we track these issues where they matter most: the legislature.
Through our weekly GESI tracker, we follow bills, motions, and parliamentary actions that influence digital safety and protection, such as the Child Online Access Protection Bill advancing in the House of Representatives.

This year’s 16 Days of Activism may end today, but the risks do not. And neither does our commitment.

Week after week, in our GESI Tracker, we monitor, report, and advocate so that gender rights are not just promised but practiced, and that every woman and girl, regardless of background, can thrive in spaces designed to empower them.

OrderPaper Nigeria and NOA Chart New Course for Citizen Engagement in Governance

We're excited to share that OrderPaper Nigeria
recently paid a courtesy visit to the National Orientation Agency (NOA), marking the beginning of a transformative partnership aimed at deepening citizen participation in Nigeria's legislative processes.

For a decade, OrderPaper has worked to bridge the gap between Parliament and citizens by providing simple, reliable parliamentary data that empowers informed decision-making.

During our visit, led by our CEO, Oke Epia, we engaged in robust discussions with the NOA leadership, including the Director-General, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu and other directors.

The DG commended our decade of resilience in filling crucial information voids within Nigeria's legislative ecosystem.

Together, we identified the "closed system" challenge in parliamentary communication and committed to breaking down these barriers.

We are hopeful that this partnership represents more than institutional collaboration while ensuring every Nigerian has access to the legislative information they need to actively participate in governance.
