"content": "Another thing that equal representation will address in our country is national inclusivity. We know that our women are not as tribal or ethnic as men. This is demonstrated by the fact that today even if you come from Nyanza, you probably have a girlfriend from the central region or from another part of the country or even from Somalia because women are more open and more genuine. From where I sit, if we have more women in power or in positions of leadership, it is good for the health of both men and women. When it comes to addressing salient issues of the country, things that matter to everybody, women are more positive. Even in our homes, women run them. We are healthier in our homes because women make critical decisions. So, I plead with my male colleagues that we have no option in this legislation, but to ensure that we work with women."
