"content": "Madam Temporary Speaker, as I indicated earlier, in the old law, widows would lose their right when they remarry. However, the same was not passed on to widowers. How crazy is it; that if a wife dies and the man remarries, and that wife had property, the man does not lose the right or interest in that property, yet he has remarried? However, a wife who remarries loses interest in her deceased husband’s property. That is not acceptable in the new era. We have heard that the Constitution 2010 prohibits laws, including customary laws that violate the Constitution. Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) is one of those customary laws that violate the Constitution and is illegal. There is no difference with the law on succession. That is especially discrimination of any kind. It is not allowed in the Constitution, 2010."
