She spoke over the weekend at programs marking the Celebration of international WOMEN’S Day organized by Women Movement for Sustainable Development (WOMSUD) under the theme, “Choose to challenge”. The event was intended to honor some women who braved the storm through the Political space to Contest during the 2020 Midterm senatorial elections. Madam Gongloe-Weh described the 2020 electoral process as a long tedious struggle but emphasized that the quest to ensure equal Representation and women Participation pull her through. She further called on INGOs with interest in women participation in government politics, to confront situations on the precedented path for which the public expect, and avoid preaching blind advocacy.
