Ms Too who unsuccessfully contested for Ainamoi parliamentary seat twice told women with leadership qualities to bold out and vie for elective seats currently held by men.

"Go for Senatorial, Gubernatorial, Members of the National Assembly and members of the county assembly" Ms Too said.

She was addressing media at Sunshine Upper Hill hotel,Kericho town Wednesday.

Uraia Trust main objective is to encourage women to go for elective positions where they stand to effectively fight for their rights. 

The workshop was fronting for a fine-tuned bill that will be passed by county assembly.
