    "content": "Thank you, Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me an opportunity to contribute to this Bill. I want to thank hon. Ndung'u for bringing this Bill. I have taken time to go through the entire Bill. As my colleague, hon. Angwenyi has put it, I support the Bill in principle. However, there are very many things that have been inserted in this Bill which will make me not to support it. The preamble reads, \"An Act of Parliament to make provisions about sexual offences, their definitions, prevention and protection of all persons from harm from other sexual acts and for connected purposes.\" I have gone through the Bill and there is nowhere the offence of rape has been defined. Instead, the Bill seeks to repeal Section 139 of the Penal Code which describes rape. I propose to the Mover that instead of repealing this section, it is better to enjoin it to the Bill so that it can define rape. Secondly, gang-rape has been defined in this Bill. But you cannot use the same definition. There is also the definition of genital organs. With my little knowledge of biology which I did--- I am not a lawyer or a doctor, but I am ready to be corrected if I am wrong."
