    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, for this opportunity. Today, 15th April, 2025, two years and three months after the internationally publicized accidents that I had here in Parliament, I am honoured to come before you and this House for the Second Reading of the Provision of Sanitary Towels Bill (Senate Bills No.7 of 2024). Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, before I make my submissions, I would like to inform the House that I want to do this in honour of Jackline Chepng’eno, a 14-year-old girl who committed suicide after a horrible incident of period shaming. As I was drafting this Bill, my thoughts were with the family of Jackline and many others who have suffered the severe consequences of period poverty."
