The call to actively participate in political leadership is being heard across the nation ahead of the 2027 General Election. In a meeting with local elders, Ambassador Josephine Ojiambo urged women to challenge themselves and vie for the positions that have historically been dominated by men. The ambassador, who is vying for the Funyula parliamentary seat, believes that increased representation of women in leadership can transform the country's political landscape and bring attention to issues that affect communities.
Professor Julia Ojiambo, Josephine's daughter, is also prepared to take on a leadership role and has sought the blessings of the Samia elders. Her sentiments were echoed by Lydia Nasubu, Vice Chairperson of the Samia Women Achievers Alliance, who called on more women to step up and assume leadership positions. By doing so, Nasubu stated, these women can wield their influence to promote development and empower their communities.
