    "content": "is only the women seats that are traded around? Why could they not add the 47 to the Senate but also leave the 47 at the National Assembly level? I also heard some Senators here talking in a very condescending manner about the women in the National Assembly, who have the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) and talking about them only being able to buy tents and chairs. My friend, for the women in the rural areas, those tents and chairs and the bursaries they get from the Woman Representatives mean a great deal. The Kshs8 million per constituency is a lot better than the zero they will have in this House. Women are empowered a little bit with that little than the zero that is here. Maybe in the next cycle or two, they will be able to run for the single constituency, the Senate or even the governor’s seats. So, let us not take away what they have and bring them here where there is zero, where we know how hard it is to maintain these seats without anything."
