Women outnumber men in the Parliament of Rwanda

Did you know that in the Parliament of Rwanda 57 percent of the MPs are women?

It is the only Parliament in the world where women represent a majority in government.

Voter Anne Kayitesi told the BBC’s Focus on Africa: “You see men, especially in our culture, men used to think that women are there to be in the house, cook food, look after the children… but the real problems of a family are known by a woman and when they do it, they help a country to get much better.”
