"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker for this opportunity. I also want to weigh in in trying to contribute to this important Motion. I will not talk much about this issue because in front of me is part of my family. I have my children in the Speaker’s Gallery, and I do not think this subject is going to be good to them. The issue of a man getting married to another man and a woman making love to a woman is very un-African. According to our culture, it is very difficult even to talk about being in love with a man. It is immoral to even discuss such things. When I was queuing in the morning, I thought I was going to talk about electricity. I did not even want to contribute to this because it is unethical and uncultured. We need to entrench it into our laws so that anyone who is going to be found culpable of this would be penalised and put behind bars. We need very punitive laws which others will learn from those who would have been prosecuted, charged and put behind bars. Even animals; s Shamba la Wanyama, cannot do such things. We have people with five common senses who do such things yet animals without, do not do it. I do not know where this thing came from. We need to pray for ourselves and our country. Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I beg to support the Motion."
