    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. This House is for all of us. We cannot have a section that can discuss the BBI at will and when I put my input, it becomes a problem. I am not a squatter in this House. I represent 6.5 million Kenyans living with disability. When I talk of gender issues, I know there are women with disabilities who also deserve these positions. When I talk of the slots that have been given in BBI, I talk with a lot of authority because I represent persons with disabilities. I do not want them to be dumped, but to be given their rightful positions as per the Constitution of Kenya in Article 54, the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities which Kenya ratified in 2008 and is domesticated, and the Persons with Disability Act No.14 of 2003. I am speaking with authority. Thank you, Hon. Gladys Wanga, we have always been allies, but on this one, we may not be allies. Remember the issues that affect women as the affirmative action group also affect persons with disabilities. Before I was rudely interrupted, I was saying that we need women in leadership positions. This particular Paper has addressed these issues by The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor."
