Abstract
Women emancipation through empowerment all over the world is at its peak and Africans
generally are not left out. It is an attempt to make sure that women’s voices are heard
and are given their right places in the scheme of things. Nonetheless, the issue of
educational attainment of women considering the low level of girls’ education in Africa is
at a negative variance to attaining women position since certain educational attainments
are required to function effectively in the various available organs; be it work place,
group or committees of local or international standing. This paper therefore stresses the
use of open and distance institution in Nigeria as an avenue to attain knowledge and
education that would put women in a better stead toward achieving their aims and
aspirations.
