The study adopts liberal feminist theory. The study employs descriptive research design to examine gender inequality and women's inclusiveness in politics during the 2024 local government elections in Adamawa State. Purposive sampling techniques was used. Data collected were analysed using chi-square facilitated by SPSS. The study discovered that there is high rate of women participation and inclusion in 2024 local government election in Adamawa State.
