Abstract In modern era, Women’s political empowerments are the center stage of all the discourses on international scenes. Many people still find it difficult to believe that some women possessed the mental capacity to lead millions of people than men and therefore, strongly oppose women’s right to political participation. To eliminate such sociological perceptions against women, international instruments like nited !ations and Inter #arliamentary union have put a system in place to ensure that every member’s states comply with the provisions laid down during $%&& ! 'eneral Assembly for resolution on women’s political participation and the &()th Assembly of the Inter #arliamentary nion. *espite nited !ations and inter parliamentary union affords to empower women on the political field there have been many other organi+ations established to advocates for women’s empowerment. The purpose of my research is to highlight on the progress being made in advocating for women’s political participation and how they have been weakly responding to those issues by proving their low performance in eercising good leadership and thus prioriti+ing family affairs over state’s welfares. -eywords /eadership, #olitical, Women, #articipation, nited !ations, !obel #eace #ri+e, 0mpowerment.
