"content": " I am well guided, Hon. Speaker. I must stand here to commend you on the way you have conducted the disdains in the House this afternoon. As a Member of Parliament who is doing her second term, I have been here for five years and I was graced to get another five years. This is a House of elected representatives, Hon. Speaker. When Members want to start insinuating and attacking the personality, orientation and how certain gender looks, it is despicable. We only have elected representatives in this House. For one to be locked behind this door to be called a Member of the National Assembly, especially for a woman Member, it calls more than enough if it is not for the life of that particular woman. I beg you, Papa ; there is a tendency that is coming up in this House of Members wanting to entertain the House using the gender of the woman. We will not allow this as women leaders of this country. Hon. Speaker, when a Member takes time to say: “Do not look in my direction, I do not want you”, surely, this is not a House where people want to talk about sexual insinuations. Hon. Speaker, Kenyans are looking up to us to debate on current matters which affect the nation, so that we can move forward and not talk about sexuality."
