Solidarity for African Women's Rights: A Case of Co-Emergent Grassroots Leadership Activity in Nigeria

Abstract

The mechanisms that advance community well-being and the practice of democracy are changing. However, theories that inform democracy and associated leadership activities have not recognized Nigeria's unique historical, political, socio-cultural, and economic context. The current article aims to offer a culturally specific and relevant understanding of grassroots movements that contribute to improved leadership activity in Nigeria.
