"Single mothers will be prioritised in Baba's government. Single mothers, are you there? Children of single mothers, are you there?" Karua asked the attendees of her rally in Eldoret.

"I am one of you, single mothers and I understand your challenges."

"This will ensure every Kenyan gets proper health care without incurring any cost," she said.

Thousands of Uasin Gishu residents thronged the Karua political rally.

"We cannot believe the kind of reception we have received here. This is a great show of peace we enjoy as a country and we have come to request your votes in peace. Our track record (Raila and Karua's) speaks for itself," she told the rally.
