Nominated senator Gloria Orwoba and Principal Secretary for Diaspora, Roseline Njogu, have hatched a plan for the Diaspora public inclusion in the #EndPeriodPoverty campaign. 

The senator lauded their engagement as satisfactory in streamlining a structured channel for dispensing her period poverty campaign across the diaspora.
