    "content": "Yes. Thank you, Hon. Millie. It is a crime when you forward it to somebody else; you are giving it power. You are empowering the person who originated it. I want to say this to our fellow men. In my culture, it is an abomination to see the nakedness of a woman and, more so, a mother. When you see the nakedness of a mother who is not your wife or your friend, you are supposed to get blind. That is what my culture says. I categorically say that, those who are proliferating this problem, sending and circulating those images from one point to another, may they get blind, as my sister said. They should never see light again so that they will not pass that information. Even in political spaces, women have suffered the most, especially those who have the courage to vie for political seats in Kenya. They face very many forms of discrimination and very many bad things are said about them. How I wish that if men and women are to compete in any space, let the competition be very fair and let everyone be given an opportunity without using terrible words against women. I want to follow up on what has just been said on the most recent photo about a woman leader in Kenya. We condemn it with the strongest possible terms. It is very bad that even our fellow women are also talking badly about it. Morality is an individual thing. It is in your own heart and, as it has been said, it is God alone who knows what is good or what is bad. Can we stop making judgement or passing judgement against our fellow women as if those of us who are making those judgements are perfect. Let us not allow our own women colleagues to suffer as we wait and see. Let us all come up, stand up and speak out against those fights so that women in our society can get justice."
