"content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I was saying that we need to encourage and support the girl-child. However, let us not confuse the important issues with cultural values of our people. Let us encourage our people, whatever their cultural values, to support the girl-child. For example, if you look at polygamous homes, I know that there are many polygamous homes which have taken their children to the highest level of education. I also know that monogamous homes, like in the Western countries, where there exists serial marriages. These are marriages which are broken year in, year out and the girl-child in these families can never be happy. She will never even go to school because she will be having more than two fathers like a prophet. So, what I am saying is that we should support the girl-child and give her opportunities to advance. Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, with those few remarks, I beg to support."
