belani has a lot of support, and as you know, she is not the first woman to try. i think her chances somewhat depend perhaps on if the presidential candidate of her party wins because incumbency in nigeria is a powerful thing, right? the incumbent governor will have the advantages of incumbency, but it is a close race, and she is gaining a lot of momentum. i would say maybe it is about 50/50 right now. >> i see you nodding along. what do you think she needs to do specifically to get over the line? >> absolutely. it is a difficult question to answer, so that's why i was nodding in that we got a people's race with the presidential election at the moment, so everything is kind of up in the air. she's about to point out that nigeria has historically been a two-party state, and having that kind of party machine behind you really can make the difference in an election like this. >> we will be keeping a close eye on her specifically. nigeria ranks extremely low in gender equality index ratings. women are massively underrepresented when it comes to politics in nigeria. ca
