Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Deputy President Rigathi Gachagua has urged women leaders to cultivate harmony and build each other, so they can demonstrate great leadership.<\/p>\n

He said women have the capability of leading and winning many elective seats if they shun jealousy.<\/p>\n

He spoke on Friday at the Bomas of Kenya during the UDA National Women Congress.<\/p>\n

“Hii uchanguzi wa chama ukija wacha nieleze nyinyi. Nyinyi mkitaka hii viti mtachukua yote. The women are the majority. Bora muache ile maneno kidogo ya wivu ya wamama na wamama,” he said.<\/p>\n

This is loosely translated to, “Let me tell you, you can win all the seats during the party leadership elections. The women are the majority. As long as you let go of the woman to woman jealous.”<\/p>\n

The DP added that if they stopped coveting their women’s shoes, clothes and other petty things that bring division, they would surely win.<\/p>\n

On a light note, Gachagua however asked them to not contest the party seats held by President William Ruto and himself.<\/p>\n

Ruto is the UDA party leader while Gachagua deputises him, defacto.<\/p>\n

He told them that their leadership has been bestowed by God, and affirmed by Kenyans who voted for them.<\/p>\n

Gachagua urged the women leaders to strive to achieve greatness in their positions, so as to change the perception that they cannot lead.<\/p>\n

He gave an example of a woman who managed to trounce men during the 2022 general elections.<\/p>\n

“In Kwale, Fatuma Achani (Governor) battled with men and defeated them and she’s doing a great job. You know the tradition of the area,” he said.<\/p>\n

“She has gone out of her way to affirm women’s leadership in the coast region.”<\/p>\n

The DP further urged them to prove to all that they can be great leaders.<\/p>\n

UDA has been advocating to empower women and promote their leadership which is a crucial step in promoting gender equality and inclusivity in Kenyan politics.<\/p>\n

This move is likely to have far-reaching effects, potentially leading to increased female representation in political roles and, consequently, policies that cater more to women\u2019s needs and concerns.<\/p>\n

The party is chaired by Cecily Mbarire with Cleophas Malala as the Secretary General.<\/p>\n
