Previous research in the area of media, politics and female communication suggests that women are generally marginalised in Nigerian polity, making the polity excessively male-dominated. This paper therefore seeks to provide way out of the prolonged debate on gender marginalisation and inequality to safely ascertain ways for active female representation. Based on secondary sources available, this discourse examined factors limiting female representation especially media-related factors; inadequate media attention during election campaign, discriminatory religious doctrines, media bias and portrayal, male dominance amongst others. In providing answers to the question raised in the title of the discourse, the paper recommended increased media attention and portrayal, media mobilisation and education on female rights, improved women emancipation programmes as part of ways out of gender marginalisation in Nigeria.
