Gladys Shollei's Proposal is the Best we have

 No more than two thirds of members of any elective or appointive positions shall be  of the same gender. So forbids Constitutuition of Kenya 2010. The third gender rule as it is mostly referred to, has continued to get a ping pong in parliament, which is itself a target  of this provision. Kenyan parliament remains dominated by men since 1963. There have been efforts to realize this legal requirement in the past. Most notably,  towards the general election of 2017. The majority leader in the National Assembly Mr.Aden   Duale tried his best but a greater portion of legislators were reluctant to support him.
