Abstract
Gender equality, a contemporary issue well talked about in our society today, has been seen in different perspectives. Some have the perspective of equality of women with men in all aspects while some see it as a way for women to pursue some of the fundamental human rights that will better ensure their worth. Gender is a social and psychological characteristic associated with being female or male. In any patriarchal society, it is believed that men are far superior to women in all aspects of life and maybe that has been the reasons why they have been marginalized in politics, social, economic and religious sectors among others. In this paper, attempt is made to locate gender equality as an instrument that should be sharpened and developed to enhance the worth of women to enable them make meaningful impact in the society. Some concepts will be defined such as gender equality, inequality, and sustainable development. Based on the conclusion, some recommendations were made for national development; stressing that the nation should be gender sensitive and live above gender biases and marginalization for sustainable development. Keywords: Gender, Equality, Inequality, Sustainable Development. Patriarchal
