Speaker Kadaga Urges Women Icons into Book Writing

The Speaker of Parliament Rebecca Kadaga has commended women icons in Uganda who have documented their success, saying it is a sure way of grooming girls into great women leaders.

Kadaga made the statement while launching a book ‘Rise Up’ authored by Rosemary Ssenabulya, a former Executive Director for the Federation of Uganda Employers (FUE).

Kadaga’s statement comes a few days to the celebration of Women’s Day commemorated on March 8, worldwide. She said that Ugandan women have been greatly exposed to leadership, businesses and corporate work for them to offer leadership to the next generation.

Kadaga noted that the mentality that great men and women hail from Europe and America should not be handed over to the next generation, owing to the growing number of women in high positions.

Ssenabulya said that her book is mainly about challenges faced by women in their day to day lives and how they are overcome.
