ABSTRACT
The campaign for women
employment and emancipation in
The right of women have been
severally abused and neglected. Women have been relegated to the background and
kept out from the scheme of things simply because of unorthodox beliefs. Some
women have been forced to accept that their major role should be in the
kitchen.
Today, women in
Being the case, I researched
and evaluated the attitudes, contributions and problems of the mass media
towards this direction. I also gave
useful suggestions on how best the mass media should go in order to succeed in
this worthy campaign for women employment.

CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
The mass media have played a vital role supporting women employment
campaign in
In addition to supporting women empowerment campaign, they also performs
the functions of socialization, information, education, communication by
carrying out enlightenment programmes. They create forum for information and
motivation.
The fundamental function of the mass media is mainly to expose, provide
and enhance incidental learning. They have the capacity to reflect and shape
opinion thus playing active role in public attitude formation. It is a very
effective body of communication with good and wide availability which makes it
more convincing that a large number of people are more likely to be influenced.
Therefore, the mass media aims at converting, re –enforcing, charging or
persuading the activities of people in a given society.
A unique between the mass media and other agents of socialization and
techniques by which specialized groups employ technological device “press,
radio, films etc. to disseminate symbolic content to a large public.
In assessing the role of the mass media in supporting women employment
campaign in Nigeria therefore, one takes into cognizance those roles both the
radio, television, newspaper, magazines, books and journals etc. have played by
improving and ensuring the welfare of the women in our society.
Abiola Akiyode Afolabi – a Lawyer and the Executive Director of women
advocates research and documentation centre, WARDC emphasized the need for
women to clamour for their rights and make the states to be more sensitive to
their issues.

BACKGROUND
OF THE STUDY
The role of
the mass media in any society includes:
§
Providing semi – formal kind of socialization
§
Providing avenue for good listening, observation
and imitation.
§
Providing modern communication.
§
Providing the child or an individual with the
knowledge of wide world.
§
Organizing educative programmes that impacts
knowledge to both youths and children.
§
Bringing to our homes the different culture of
different people,
§
Entertaining the audience and
§
Creating role models.
In the light of the foregoing, one cannot neglect the enormous powers of
the mass media having consideration for the vast medium of communication it
possesses.
Over thew years, the need for women
empowerment has continued to rise. In our newspaper, magazines, over the radio,
in the televisions, it have been variously discussed many writers have put
their opinions together in form of books and journals.

STATEMENT OF
THE PROBLEM
The campaign for women empowerment in
In view of the above, it is expected that
women with their large number in the society, should be embraced into the
scheme of things instead of being relegated to the background. Already, in our
various schools of higher learning, female student journalists have continued
to increase in number. With such development, it is expected that such large
numbers should also extend to the media houses and other fields of human
endeavour.
It is very worthy therefore for the
mass media to champion the course for women employment so as to liberate then from
all manner of discriminations, bad practices, widowhood rites and practices,
female genital multivation, early marriages trafficking in women and other practices that both affect
and discrimination against women.
Owing to the observation, this project
is aimed at mass media, their contributions, their problems and their attitudes
towards supporting the campaign for women empowerment in
