Why is it hard to succeed as a female politician with a disability?
\u201cSome members will still look at you as a person who is only there to talk about disability. So every time you want to speak about a different issue, people still want to push you into the disability corner and say \u2018this is not your space\u2026 If you\u2019re not talking about disability you better keep quiet\u2019.\u201d\n \nWomen in politics already face a lot of challenges in Africa - with some of their male counterparts questioning their ability, criticising their clothing and telling them to stick to \u2018women\u2019s issues\u2019.\n \nBut what about if you\u2019re a woman and deaf? Or blind? Or live with another disability?\n \nToday, Alan Kasujja speaks with two women with disabilities who\u2019ve had success in politics \u2013 but who are still pushing to make sure they are represented at the very heart of government.\n \n\u201cOf course I can be President! Why not?!\u201d\n \nPresenter: @kasujja\nGuests: @ashura_michael and @LKanushu39049
