The DP asked media houses to send all-women teams to cover the event which will be held at Nyayo National Stadium
According to the coalition, the decision to have female journalists cover the event is part of commemorating the role women play in numerous areas.
"We encourage your Media House/Online News Blog to deploy an all Women Crew as we seek to celebrate and highlight the important role played by Women in all sectors," UDA Communications Director, Wanjohi Githae, said in a media invite.
The Kenya Kwanza Women Charter will be signed at the event, which will be attended by the coalition's presidential candidate William Ruto.
This comes after the UDA Women's League was launched at a Nairobi hotel on Sunday.
Ruto stated his party is counting on women's support to win the August 9 elections during the launch of the UDA Women's League.
“UDA is a women’s party. It has the largest representation of women across the board. All opinion polls indicate UDA is the most popular party in Kenya and has a record majority of women,” said Ruto
DP Ruto stated during the launch that if he is elected president, women will be in charge of various positions. He added that his party had the most female candidates in the forthcoming August 9 elections.
