In Kenya, we have seen many women leaders in all walks of life and especially in leadership position and some working for the government while others are politicians and to name but just a few, they include Charity Ngilu, Gladys shollei, Grace kahindi, Millie odhiambo, Ann waiguru, Ruth odinga, Martha karua, Kaplan Rawal, Nancy Barasa, Naomi Shaaban, Julia ojiambo, Shebesh, Mishi Mboko, Naomi shabani, Alice Nganga, Wavinya Ndeti, Elizabeth Ongoro, Gladys Wanga etc.
But the women seem to play a second fiddle to the men in Kenya. They do not challenge their status quo because they are being too hands off. They have to wait to be appointed by men or must be accompanied by men whenever they issue statements. Is it that they can’t do it alone?
