Deputy President William Ruto has asked MPs to amend clauses in the Constitution Amendment Bill, 2020 that undermine women leadership. "Let us not reduce the leadership of women in Kenya to tokenism because they are as capable as men,"he said.

Gakuya wondered why there was a clamour for constitutional amendment yet the current constitution is disregarded. "If we can not obey the current constitution, what's the need for BBI?"
