Wednesday, February 7, 2024 - Githunguri Member of Parliament, Gathoni Wamuchomba, has exposed how President William Ruto has failed Kenyan women despite promising them heaven during his campaigns.
In an interview with TV 47 on
Tuesday, Wamuchomba, who was elected on the United Democratic Alliance (UDA) party ticket, said that the President has fallen short of the pledges he made to women during
campaigns.
She noted that this shows how
limited Kenyan women are in the political leadership space.
The legislator said because of
this, women don't get opportunities to lead in strategic areas.
"The women's space in the political arena is very limited and the available space is very suffocating.
"We
can't breathe, especially with the Kenya Kwanza government," Wamuchomba
said.
"Women in politics have not
been given opportunities to be in strategic positions for leadership and those
that have been placed there, are there because to me it is a platform for
use."
She said that during campaigns,
President William Ruto promised to have an inclusive and balanced
administration in terms of gender but that has not been the case.
