    "content": "Hon. Speaker, the Senate will have 47 men and 47 women. They will not just be decorating that House because we need to have the women vote in the Senate. They will have equal roles in the identification of projects in their counties. They will also vote on equal terms with their male counterparts. This will give respect to the women of this country as they will participate like men. Some women have said that they will be moved from the National Assembly to the Senate, but I want to tell them that they can choose to serve in this House by identifying single constituencies. This will give them an opportunity to serve and maybe be picked to serve in the Executive as cabinet ministers. I can see my time is up, but I support the allocation of 35 per cent to Kitui County and the Ward Fund. I support this Bill because it will bring peace and give this country the best trajectory to development without caring where we come from, our tribes and who we associate with.
