Deputy President William Ruto has said the women of Kenya have a reason to support President Uhuru Kenyatta because Jubilee has proved to be the party that has given priority to their welfare. 

The DP said with the support of the women in Kenya, President Kenyatta was set to beat the opposition leader by a larger margin in the October 26 fresh polls.

The Deputy President said Jubilee will remain focused on promoting peace and unity, saying Kenyans should shun the opposition which is bent on dividing the country into tribal lines.

Ruto was speaking during a meeting with women leaders at State House in Nairobi.

Women leaders who attended the meeting included Governors Anne Waiguru (Kirinyaga) and Joyce Laboso (Bomet), MPs Sophia Abdi (Ijara), Naomi Shaban (Taveta), Janet Teiyaa (Women Rep, Kajiado), Fatuma Dullo (Senator, Isiolo) and Margaret Kamar (Senator, Uasin Gishu) among others.

The women assured President Kenyatta and his deputy that they will launch an aggressive door-to-door campaign that will ensure a resounding victory for the President on October 26.
