A petition has been filed to the government, with demands to address the rising cases of femicide. The petition filed on February 8, highlights the plight of women and asks the government to take swift action to address the concerns. They also demand that reports on femicide cases be made on an annual basis during the State of the Nation address. This, they say, will help to facilitate the creation of intimate partner violence and violence against women preventive programs for men. "Kenyan feminists, especially young Kenyan feminists, are more than qualified to serve in public service, and the appointment processes continue to overlook and deny young feminists appointment to positions," the petition reads.
