"content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, any leader who heard the utterances of Governor Guyo was terribly embarrassed and ashamed to be called a colleague leader because when young people listen to such utterances, they think that is the norm. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, if that was not sexual violence against Sen. Fatuma Dullo, then I do not know what sexual violence is. I even lack the right words to express myself because as a leader and somebody who under stands the difficulty in executing the work of a Senator, I felt very embarrassed. I felt bad on behalf of Sen. Dullo because I know that this is a Senator just going about her business. Many times, governors do not appreciate how difficult it is because when bad things happen in our county governments. Many times, citizens look up to you, as a Senator, to speak on their behalf and question when things go wrong. Unfortunately, that on many occasions, is misconstrued to mean that you have personal vendetta against an individual who is serving as a governor. That is the nature of our constitutional duty. It is our work to be the eyes and voice of the people and that is all that Sen. Fatuma Dullo has done. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like to challenge Sen. Fatuma Dullo to file a formal complaint with the Ethics and Anti-Corruption Commission (EACC) because this The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."

Young people watch and I am sure they were part of those celebrations. So, when they look at a widow like Fatuma Dullo, they imagine that is the kind of leadership that we have as a country. I join those that are condemning the utterances of Governor Guyo and ask the people of Isiolo County when you look at such utterances being made against a woman leader from your county, do you feel proud? Are you happy that that is the kind of leadership that your county has? It is unfortunate and wrong. I condemn it in the strongest terms possible. I thank you."

"content": "I thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity to also stand in solidarity with our colleague, Sen. Dullo, who has suffered a sexist attack from a fellow leader in the same county. I would like this House to take note that sometimes last year when the Senate Standing Committee on CPAC, led by Sen. Kajwang,’ visited Isiolo County, certain things happened that were untoward and directly attributable to the governor. It should also be remembered that not many months ago, there was a presidential visit in Isiolo County. Again, certain things happened that were unbecoming of a leader of the stature of a governor, in the visit of the President in his county. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the latest direct attack on Sen. Dullo is not just an attack on her as a person, but is also an attack on women leadership in this country, and to some extent, this House. What bothers me most is that this attack is coming at a time that the Senate is grappling with the issue of the formula for sharing revenue to counties. Sen. Dullo, our colleague who is one of the highest-ranking Members of this House, coming from a small county called Isiolo, is taking the lead in persuading her colleagues to give more money to Isiolo County, so that the county can be viable. Here is a leader who is trying to fight for a county to send money to a governor who is attacking her on the basis of sex or gender. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I would like this House to perhaps think through how to deal with the Governor of Isiolo County. The starting point would be, perhaps for the Senator from Isiolo County to invoke Standing Order 110. We begin there, so that we do an Adjournment and just have a conversation about the Governor of Isiolo Couny and how we will deal with him as Senators. As I said, an attack on Sen. Dullo is an attack on all of us. I thank you."

"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, what the Governor of Isiolo did is a criminal offence that can amount to an impeachment. He has violated the Chapter 6 of the Leadership and Integrity Act. I had the privilege to work with the EACC and I implore the women of Isiolo County to come out and write an impeachment against him. If we have female Members of County Assembly (MCAs) in Isiolo County, they should know that the Swahili people say; “when you see your friend's head being shaved, you are next.” They should know that this is an attack on the women of Kenya, the pastoralist women and this House. I am very hurt that I saw a public officer making such reckless remarks, regardless of the fact that he has children, mother, wife and sisters. How does this man sleep at night? This is what has normalized sexual harassment and cyber bullying, always making women objects of sexism. It is disrespect to the women leadership. I would like to also urge Kenyans who are also involved in this, that you better have facts of what you say about people. I have personally borne the brunt of this nonsense being peddled online. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, we assure you and every other Kenyan that as women and as the Vice-Chairperson of Kenya Women Senators, we are not in these political spaces to sell ice cream. We will fight because we belong to these spaces and nobody will intimidate us. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, there is a purpose and a reason they call things private. When you hear of private land, no trespass, private parts, no trespass. Nobody has the right to dictate how somebody utilizes anything that is private to them. Let this be known across the whole country, that we are not apologetic about being in these spaces. The target has always been on the strong women of integrity. They should look at our history and how we got here. We got here because we did not compromise on integrity. As a personalist woman from Baragoi, I am ready to take anybody who brings that nonsense to me, head on. I urge my elder sister, Fatuma Dullo---"
