Ng’wasi Kamani (MP) of Tanzania CCM Party made an appeal for the support of the candidature of Rt. Hon. Dr. Tulia Ackson (Speaker of Parliament) as President of the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU). The appeal was made to the Pan-African Parliament during the adoption of committee report on gender, family, youth and people living with disabilities. She stated that Tanzania is the only country on the continent with the rear privilege of having women simultaneously head successfully, the executive and legislative arms of government. This proofs that given the chance women can succeed just as well as their male counterparts.

Her appeal was supported by other Members of Parliament, Senator Margaret Kamar (Kenyan) and Mrs Maimuna Ceesay (Gambian). If elected, Dr. Ackson will be the first African woman to hold the position and will lead the organization from 2023-2026.
