Women MPs have called for increased empowerment and equality in the leadership of this country in the new constitutional dispensation.
With Kenyans warming up to the Building Bridges Initiative (BBI) reforms, the women leaders are seeking more commitment to gender equality if the country is to attain the two-thirds gender rule.
Nominated MPs Jackline Oduol and Dennitah Ghati of ODM claimed proposals contained in the BBI to have male and female senators was a big first step to increasing women’s professional outreach.
