Women make up half of Nigeria’s population – but only ten per cent of candidates running for office in this month’s elections.
One woman vying for state governor is raising hopes that voters may elect the first female to that position.
Activists say this could mark a turning point for women in a male-dominated society.

Al Jazeera’s Ahmed Idris reports from the eastern Nigerian city of Yola.
