Funke Akindele, Toyin Abraham Named in National Women Rally Entertainment Committee 2026
Organisers of the National Women Mega Empowerment and Rally 2026 have released the entertainment committee for the May 5 event in Abuja.
The rally will hold at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium and is linked to the Federal Ministry of Women Affairs under Imaan Sulaiman-Ibrahim.
The event theme is “The Power of 10 Million: One Voice! One Movement!! One Choice!!!”
Why This Committee Matters
This is not just about music, dance, or stage performance. The committee is expected to shape the creative side of the rally and help make the message of women’s empowerment stronger.
That is why the list includes Nollywood stars, Kannywood actors, veteran performers, and government-linked figures.
Committee Leadership
The overall committee is chaired by Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, First Lady of Lagos State.

Other top names include Hannatu Musa Musawa, Rachael Umahi, and Ramatu Tijani.
The entertainment committee has Rahama Sadau, Eniola Badmus, General Deaconess Ngozi Okoh, and Tola Akerele as co-chairpersons.

Why Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham Stand Out
Funke Akindele and Toyin Abraham are two of Nigeria’s biggest film stars. Their names bring attention, audience trust, and strong connection with women across different age groups.
Funke has a strong pull among young and urban audiences, while Toyin connects deeply with family-focused and everyday Nigerian viewers.
Their inclusion gives the rally more cultural weight.
Why Rahama Sadau’s Role Is Important
Rahama Sadau’s presence also matters. As one of Kannywood’s biggest names, she helps give the committee stronger northern representation.
That is important because a national women’s rally must speak to women across Nigeria, not only Lagos and Abuja.

What the Committee Will Do
The organisers said the committee will plan and coordinate entertainment activities for the rally.
In simple terms, they will help make the event lively, organised, and memorable while using culture and creativity to support the message of women’s empowerment.
