Gender bill in Kenya flops due to low turnout in parliament SABCNews

Marilyn Kamuyu, Lawyer and gender rights activist, says that men refused to comply.

“The men in the 12th parliament have refused to comply, you are not going to put this on women, if all the women showed up they couldn’t pass the bill.” The fight for equal representation has been on for years, women seemed to gain their first win after the enactment of the 2010 constitution. Since 2012, court rulings have ordered parliament to pass laws on the gender rule, but all attempts have failed on the floor of the house that experts say now put that very parliament at risk of dissolution.Critics of this law say women do want to fight it out with men on the ballot, but women argue they have earned their place. Women in the Kenyan parliament account for 22% against the legally required 30% far below her East African neighbours.

With the current impasse, women now want the country Chief Justice David Maraga to advice President Uhuru Kenyatta to dissolve parliament as it is illegally constituted, but Maraga remains mum on that petition.
