- 요약Research has indicated that Nigerian rural women are essential to food security because of their active participation in agriculture and the agricultural value chain. However, they are viewed as insignificant partners and face many limitations, especially in the leadership space. This study focuses on rural women in Akwa Ibom State and investigates the connections between cultural norms and traditional beliefs, leadership, gender, agriculture, and economic activities, with the goal of bringing to the fore the barriers women face, how they are included in leadership, and strategies to empower women in leadership in agriculture and agripreneurship, promote female leadership, and decolonize ancestral and community structures. It employs a multifaceted approach that combines economic skill development, leadership development, and a focus on decision-making. The study was based on the social role, transformative leadership, and adaptive leadership theoretical frameworks. This basic qualitative research study drew participants from the three senatorial districts of the state. Data was collected via semi-structured interviews and a focus group. The data was analyzed using descriptive and pattern coding, which led to five major themes: ancestral loyalties-the dictator, inhibitors of women in leadership and decision-making, catalysts of women in leadership and decision-making, challenging the status quo, and suggested drivers of change. The study's findings have the potential to contribute to long-term development by promoting women's leadership capacity development interventions and initiating sustainable positive socio-economic change in rural communities.
