Last time, I remember when we were discussing these issues, their number in the House was low. I will urge them to ensure that they are there to push for their agenda. When we are talking about gender, it does imply that we are talking about female empowerment, but both the boy child and the girl child to be treated equally. That said, I think the disparity is clear and there is need to support an affirmative action to ensure that the same is pushed. Of course, the BBI has been so kind to the ladies because it ensures that 70 seats have been set aside to empower the female gender. Hold your horses. It is clear in the document. I am not campaigning for the BBI at this juncture, but it has been so kind to them, so that 70 seats have been set aside for female leaders and our assumption is that… Whether you call it zebra or whatever, it is in the public domain. It is clear that affirmative action has been well enshrined in that document and our expectation is that a favourable condition has been set in that document including those with disabilities like my friend who is fighting the document."
