Janet Nabla

Janet Asana Nabla is a Ghanaian politician and the Presidential candidate for People's National Party in the 2024 Ghanaian general election. Quotes We are going to court; no 13 people are going anywhere to go and contest. EC has no power to elect the people they want to contest for this year. There were not there to tell Ghanaians what to do; they were there to just do their work and they have failed woefully to do that work. I rectified every error even on my own and gave it to the EC and it is [Samuel] Kwaah [deputy director of Electoral Services] who received it, so I know Mr. Kwaah, who doesn’t like me, he [is] keeping the thing from the EC. When I sought to become the general secretary, I received calls from prominent figures, including family members, telling me that position wasn’t suitable for a woman. Some people discouraged me saying I would not succeed, especially against male contestants. But I persevered, ignoring their advice, and ultimately succeeded. I’m not surprised many women are discouraged and leaving politics altogether. The pressure and tension are unbearable, especially when you’re a woman aiming for the top. They’ll throw stones at you, do everything to pull you down. In Ghana‘s politics, women are often relegated to subordinate roles. The only position reserved for women is the women’s organizer, and even with that, they are often relegated to menial tasks. It is extremely difficult for women to rise in politics.
