EXTRA: Young man contests for women leader position in Kano

Ameer Sarkee, a young man, is seeking to be elected the women leader of Kwankwasiyya Social Media Group.

The group is loyal to Rabiu Kwankwaso, a former governor of the state.

A poster on Sarkee’s aspiration is currently circulating on social media. The position of women leader is typically held by a woman but is Sarkee out to prove a point?

Below are some reactions to Sarkee’s aspiration:

Meet The Person Contesting on the platform of PDP For Woman Leader In Kano, Nigeria.
His image reminds me of the conference on women’s reproductive rights held in Saudi Arabia that was attended by 350 sheiks with not one woman in attendance. ? pic.twitter.com/uxuAmGnNd6
