Abstract
This study focused on the role of radio in the campaign for Political Empowerment of women in Enugu State. The researchers used survey research method for the collection of quantitative data. The population of the study was 2,098,744 women living in Enugu State, Nigeria. Wimmer and Dominic online sample size calculator was used to draw a manageable sample size of 413. The instrument for data collection was questionnaire. The result of the study showed that 82.9% of the respondents have received information on radio about women political empowerment campaigns. 77.5% think that the campaigns about women political engagement in Nigeria is very important; but surprisingly, 82.1% of the respondents said that they have not contested for any political position in the State which shows there is a poor influence of the campaigns on the attitude and practice of women towards politics. Therefore, the study recommends that government should build more women empowerment centres for consistent education, training of women and handling of complaints and victims of violence against women in politics.
