    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for giving me this chance. I just want to thank Hon. Kajwang' for what he has indicated. Our concern is that when you are a Member of Parliament, you must be heard because that is our representation role. One of the things that I wanted to say earlier in regards to the Bill is the issue of unconstitutionality of some of the issues that are being raised. I know we do not have the numbers and so, Hon. Ichung'wah could have easily raised his Members to defeat. We have had a chance for us to speak. I am hoping the majority side can take cognisance of the things we are saying for purposes of human rights and good governance. I just want to say that, I am proudly serving as a third-term elected Member. If you add as a nominated Member, I am serving my fourth term. I am very familiar with the real business of the House, especially because of the jokes we have been having here. I do not come for any other business. I come to the House when we deal with real issues, legislation that affects lives. That is why I was here in time to deal with this issue. I just want to encourage my loving sister, Hon. Njeri, to please, learn from me. I am serving my third term. I am the senior-most woman Member of Parliament. Hon. Ichung'wah, please, underline that. As my sister is learning from me, she will come back three or four times and even become governor because she is learning at my feet. But if you follow somebody like Ichung'wah who I am told has not gone to Italy to study, you will fail miserably. Please, follow Hon. Millie Odhiambos of this House who can do excellent work. I just want to tell Hon. Ichung'wah that I actually won even after having called the former president names. They still recognise my sterling work in this House for the work that I have done, the work I continue to do and the work I will continue to do. This you cannot take away from me. I am sharp to the core. Thank you. I do not support."
