    "content": "These are some of the issues that if we do not raise in such a debate, then we lose focus and we will have our boys suffering in the near future. Look at the performance of girls and boys at university and at Form Four level. The girls are the shinning stars because they are presumed to be of the weaker gender, so when you reach home, you are given limited responsibilities. A boy- child takes care of cows, milking, going to the shop and later becomes a watchman at the gate. The concentration has been to treat the girl-child as an egg. If you hold an egg too hard in your hands, it will break. If you release an egg, it will drop and break. So you treat an egg with care. So, we have abandoned the boy-child. I am one of the boys that have been abandoned, but my mother prays for me. The likes of Hon. Wangwe have abandoned me and am hanging in between the NASA Coalition and Jubilee Government. My friend went to the Government. My friend, Hon. Amollo Otiende, who is a Vice-Chair courtesy of the handshake in the Government. So, those of us in ANC have been abandoned gender-wise because the only femininity that we have in the National Assembly, we have given up to some national position. The other gender from the Senate has been taken over by the tanga tanga team, so the boy-child from the ANC is suffering and needs to be taken care of."
