United Kingdom’s Azimio-One Kenya campaigns strategy team has added their weight to the call for a female running mate for the coalition’s flag bearer Raila Odinga, terming it as the most progressive and modest thing to do.

In a statement to news rooms, the Azimio-One Kenya UK/Europe executive body said, based on Kenya’s 2010 Constitution and the democratic milestones taken over the last 10 years, it is about time Kenya had a female president or deputy president.
