    "content": "Madam Deputy Speaker, that means that the penal approach is not the solution. We must find a way of bringing up our children in a manner that will discourage and incentivize them to hold on to their virginity and purity until the right age. We can ride or mount the high horse and talk about things that children should do that we were not doing before. We have set up institutions, including the National Government Affirmative Action Fund that is run or patronized by our women representatives sitting in the National Assembly. What are they doing to conduct civic education and create awareness on this vice? We have asked for resources to do monitoring and evaluation. We have a fund that is established with lots of money; millions of Kenya Shillings per constituency. Why do we still see these numbers rising? Madam Deputy Speaker, I will not put this responsibility on the doorsteps of the women representatives because it is a huge societal issue. While we were growing up, and some of us went to school in Nairobi, pornography was very difficult to come across. If you got a copy of Playboy, it would be one copy circulating in the entire school. However, on every phone today, you can get content that corrupts the morals of our children. I am an information scientist, but I support the blocking of content that is not adding value to our children. If you go to Dubai, you cannot access nude or sexual content. It was not enough for the Cabinet Secretary for Education, Prof. Magoha, to talk about pornography and leave it at that. What he needs to do is to tell the Cabinet Secretary for Information and Communication Technology, Hon. Mucheru, to set firewalls to block certain content. However, the ultimate solution is with us, as parents. The manner in which we bring up our children will determine whether they want to hold on to their purity or want to bid it to the criminals. However, we have 380,000 criminals walking around free in this Republic and making our children pregnant. Shame on them!"
