"It's time for Machakos to recognise the benefits of women leadership "-says Prof.Faith Muli



It's time for the world to recognize the benefits of women in leadership, and commit to placing even more women in positions of power.


In Machakos County,several women have risen into power,eyeing for different political positions in the Government of Kenya

Speaking on Friday during their daily meet the people tour at Ngalalya, Kwale, Kikuyuni, Syumbuni and Kyeleni,Prof.Faith Muli promised to empower women through the Bottom-Up approach once she gets to power as Deputy Governor


"Thankyou for you have come out in large numbers to engage us on Bottom-up Economic Approach. The joy and keenness you protrayed to us is a true reflection that you are yearning for positive change promised by UDA Party. I pledge to make it happen after you vote for Muthama as your next Governor during August, 9th 2022 general elections"-said Prof.Faith Muli


Women as leaders and decision-makers at all levels are critical to advancing gender justice and gender equality—and to furthering economic, social, and political progress for all.


When women are meaningfully represented and engaged in leadership bodies—such as legislatures, courts, executive boards, community councils—laws, rulings, and decisions are more likely to be inclusive, representative, and take diverse views into account.


Women’s leadership within households, including decision-making over land and household income, improves access to education and healthcare for their families.


Prof.Faith muli will be a mother of all in Machakos County without discrimination .She will empower women leadership.


The case for balancing the power equation in leadership has never been more clear: elevating women in decision-making benefits politics, businesses, and communities. But progress in women’s leadership will not happen automatically. The below actions we can take together—across governments, corporations, academia, non-profits, and civil society—to balance power in leadership and decision-making:


-Commit to gender parity in leadership.


-Implement laws and regulations that guarantee a safe and open environment for women’s participation and leadership.


-Establish policies and practices that encourage women’s leadership and promote gender parity.


-Invest in and develop public services and programs that enable women to succeed as leaders.


-Enable and support women’s organizations and movements.


-Change the narrative on women in leadership, and confront socio-cultural drivers of gender inequal


Muthama is a strong Gubernatorial Candidate in Machakos, who is battling to win with Wiper's Wavinya Ndeti, CCU's Nzioka Waita, Maendeleo Chap Chap's Eng.Francis Maliti among others
