This study deals with three main issues. The first is the role of traditional and urban women’s movements in managing the protracted electoral crises in Nigeria and Kenya. The second is the impact of customary and orthodox repercussions of the public display of half-naked bodies and bare breasts by women and their sex-denying strategies for attaining electoral justice in Nigeria and Kenya, respectively. The third is the possibility of converting these strategies to regional tools for achieving electoral justice, peace and political stability.
