Increasingly, women are partaking in the workforce, such that traditional roles of male breadwinner and female homemaker are disappearing. However, in a patriarchal system, such as that in Nigeria, there is a strong culture of male dominance and women being subjugated. Men are the decision makers, and women must seek permission in all areas of life. Domestic care and duties are the sole responsibility of women. To achieve better financial benefits, women also undertake daily paid work. Thus, women struggle to achieve a good work-life balance and avoid role overload. In Nigeria, the patriarchal system forms a barrier to achieving this balance.
