    "content": "On Gender Based Violence (GBV), if you went to a police station to report a fight with your husband, you are told: “Madam, you are lucky you are not dead because last week we had a case of a woman who died. Police stations do not solve love matters. Go home and make peace with your husband.” That is how GBV cases are looked down upon. As I proceed with GBV, rape cases and teenage mothers, you will find in our society the political class, religious leaders and even parents are not in support of this. As I stand here today, I pray we make laws on this. In fact, I want to sponsor a Bill on teenage pregnancies or reviving the already existing laws and strengthen them so that, once and for all, we can deal with this issue by either putting punitive measures or sensitisation programmes among others to clearly address these problems.
