Senate speaker Ekwe Ethuro is proposing enactment of a legislation that would require political parties to nominate election losers as a formula to attain gender parity in parliament. Ethuro argues that nominating individuals who participated in the elections would ensure party leaders do not reserve the seats for their cronies. Ethuro’s proposal would however scrap the 47 county women seats as well as the 12 nomination slots if adopted. By Kevin Wachira.
