There you have it, judges @Zippy_okoth, @Njeri_Kiereini and @miconyango have decided that all the women get to fight another day. However, they have been left with a stern warning to step up their game. It will take more to become the ultimate #MsPresident.

"Poverty is the main cause of GBV here. We have a saying in lusoga that "obwavu lumbe" meaning poverty is death. Women despise their poor husbands, this angers the men into beating them up to humble them."
