"content": "Hon. Members, take your seats. Hon. Members, the matter raised by the Woman Representative for Laikipia is, indeed, a very serious constitutional issue. As your Speaker, I have read through Hon. Masara’s Bill. It has found some time and has been discussed in the HBC. Indeed, the Senior Counsel, Hon. Otiende Amollo descended on it in the Committee on very cogent constitutional and legal grounds. As a House of Representatives of the people of Kenya, we have a fundamental duty to protect the society and particularly, the institution of marriage. The moment you turn a marriage into an instant coffee affair, then we will have no society. I will recess for two weeks and bring you a reasoned ruling. Hon. Wandayi, to the extent that Hon. Masara has not taken the opportunity to find his way to discuss the matter with the Speaker, the Bill must meet its waterloo on the Floor. Thank you."
