Its a pity that we women do not support ourselves on issues that matter in the society. We need to change this mentality if we are to get anywhere in our journey to empowerment. Ask yourself today if you stood on an issue how many women will stand by you. Most of us are very good in criticizing I remember once in Kenya and to site an example Mrs Charity Ngilu stood for presidency and she became a distant third in the polls when we women are the majority if we voted for her as a block she would have emerged with a land slide victory but woo unto we we started asking questions like can a woman really make it, can we be governed by a woman and so on. I one day stepped in an office looking for a job and I got to talk to a lady who was the director and she was very rough at me and I was very disappointed, no word of encouragement.

We need to stand and become the change that we want, be agents of change and lets support one another and we will have moved a big stride towards success.
