How do you get more women in charge so that one day they could be leading the continent? There are, of course, examples of women in charge and only recently we heard that Ngozi Okonjo Iweala, Nigeria鈥檚 former finance minister, had become head of the World Trade Organisation. Not only is she the first woman but she鈥檚 also the first African to get the job. You might say though she鈥檚 a rare example so, is it time for more affirmative action? Ellen Johnson Sirleaf was the first democratically elected President of Africa and led Liberia for 12 years. She set up the Amujae initiative last year to help mentor women into positions of public leadership in Africa. One year on Alan Kasujja has been speaking to two women who help inspire others.
