Umulkher Harun","speaker":null,"content":"This means we should unite to end any kind of violence against women and girls. I am glad that Hon. Ndindi Nyoro mentioned that he is a proud son of a woman. We know the roles that women play in our society. In all spheres, without a woman there will be no man. We are your mothers, wives, sisters and girlfriends – I was forced to say “girlfriends.” Hon. Speaker, if a woman is empowered, the whole society is empowered. I want to assure the men who fear that the boy child has been neglected that when a woman is empowered, the boy child also gets empowered."}
