Tallen made the call at the third annual forum of the Women, Peace And Security Sector Reference Group, with a theme: “The role of female security personnel in the 2023 general election” in Abuja.
According to her, the theme is in recognition of the role female security personnel play in promoting free and fair elections as well as ensuring violence-free voting environment which will encourage increased women political participation.
She said the forum was another milestone to actualise the goal of the Women, Peace and Security Agenda in Nigeria.
UN Women Country Representative to Nigeria and ECOWAS, Beatrice Eyong, said the resolution was adopted because of the significant role women played in politics.
Similarly, the Commandant General, Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps NSCDC, Ahmed Abubakar-Audi, emphasised the role women played in peace and security of any country.
