The Nigeria Olympic Committee (NOC) women’s commission will join its counterparts worldwide to celebrate International Women’s Day on March 8, 2025.

International Women’s Day (IWD) originated in the early 20th century to promote women’s rights, especially suffrage.

According to a statement released by Tony Nezianya, the NOC spokesman, International Women’s Day (IWD) is a day to honour women’s achievements and advocate for gender equality.

”It is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role.

”IWD is celebrated in many ways: rallies, lobbying, performances, festivals, parties, fun runs, and celebrations.’’
