    "content": "Senators works, or how the Ward Development Fund will work, or how the IEBC will be entrenched in the Constitution. As a woman, I plead with the leadership, the President and the former Prime Minister that when our report comes to the Floor of this House, we adopt it together with the Report of the National Dialogue Committee. The report is very clear and we need to adopt it. I plead with the National Assembly to work as a team and pass the two-thirds gender rule. I request the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs to table the formula so that we can adopt it. I thank every man and champion who has stood up for this agenda. When the Departmental Committee on Justice and Legal Affairs tables the omnibus proposals, the proposal for the two-thirds gender rule will be part and parcel of the proposals. We should not agree to go back to the days when there was a separate proposal to introduce the two-thirds gender rule. I plead with the House to support the recommendations by the Leader of the Majority Party and the Leader of the Minority Party. The National Assembly will let the women of this country know that we are one, and we are here to walk the journey together and develop our country."
