Nigerian Women, Get Ready! HWH Boss Returns With Game-Changing Gender Plan

HEIR Women Hub Archives - Iya Magazine

As part of her mission to reshape gender narratives and champion inclusive leadership in Nigeria, Anuli Aniebo, Executive Director of HEIR Women Hub (HWH), has earned a Master’s degree in Gender Studies from the prestigious School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London.

In a statement released Wednesday in Abuja, Aniebo shared how this academic achievement has deepened her resolve to challenge entrenched traditions and promote meaningful participation of young women in leadership and decision-making spaces.

“My experience provided access to historical contexts and deeper insight into the limitations in representation that we all face,” Aniebo said. “It reshaped my mindset and enhanced my ability to intervene differently by drawing from intellectual discourse by scholars across African academia.”

Reimagining Leadership in Nigeria

Aniebo, a passionate advocate for economic justice and gender equity, emphasized that her studies at SOAS helped her better understand how entrenched ideologies and binary identity constructs continue to shape Nigeria’s leadership and social systems.

“The way we interpret such ideologies still informs how we practice leadership in our country—both through structures and institutions of power,” she noted.

Her academic pursuit isn’t just for knowledge—it’s a tool for action. At HEIR Women Hub, a youth-led organization supported by the African Women’s Development Fund (AWDF), Aniebo is leveraging research to challenge harmful workplace cultures and promote systemic change.

Fighting Sexual Harassment in the Workplace

One of HWH’s major advocacy focuses has been on combating workplace sexual harassment. Under Aniebo’s leadership, the organization has spent over five years generating data and advocating for safer professional environments for young women.

“Our findings show that over 52% of young women—three in five—have experienced sexual harassment in the workplace,” Aniebo revealed. “We are now examining how many organizations have actual policies in place—and whether they are being implemented, starting with the FCT.”

She said that beyond data collection, HEIR Women Hub is now preparing to host a validation meeting to present its findings and drive deeper conversations around policy enforcement and harmful social norms.

“The workplace must be a space of protection and prevention,” she added. “Our renewed strategy, built on academic insight and lived experience, aims to achieve real, systemic change.”

Raising Awareness and Changing Mindsets

Now back in Nigeria, Aniebo is already applying her refined understanding of gender theory and leadership through media advocacy, public speaking, and opinion writing.

“I’ve started writing articles about the historical contributions of women to leadership,” she said. “I also speak on TV programs about mindset re-engineering and the ideological barriers that hinder our progress as a society.”

Citing the continued challenges in Nigeria around victim-blaming and weak institutional support, Aniebo noted that despite global progress, the country still has a long way to go in supporting survivors and dismantling systemic bias.

“The burden of proof remains on the victim, and the bullying culture seeks to discredit survivors before even listening to them,” she said.

Values That Inspire Change

At the heart of Aniebo’s work and the vision of HEIR Women Hub are four guiding principles: Hard work, Equality, Intelligence, and Respect.

“These values have propelled many to success globally,” she said. “When it comes to reshaping society, especially around mindset and behavioral change, sustained effort is non-negotiable.”

As she brings her global experience home, Aniebo is entering a bold new chapter of advocacy—armed with fresh insight, data-driven tools, and a relentless belief in the power of inclusion.

“Graduating, returning to my homeland, and applying a tested and proven approach demonstrates that values like these never go out of style.”

Through HEIR Women Hub and her redefined approach to leadership, Anuli Aniebo isn’t just challenging the status quo—she’s rewriting the playbook for women’s empowerment and societal transformation in Nigeria.
