"content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, in the Kisii community culture, if you approach a girl the first time and she says yes, you leave her because she is a prostitute. She has to pretend that she does not agree with your request. Then you make more advances. You even tell her that you will buy her a Mercedes Benz even if you do not have a vehicle yourself. That is the way we seduce our women. She might even refuse completely. Then you send somebody; her age mates, to go and talk to her. You can even touch her a little but not go too far. I do not condone rape. But I am saying that this Bill must be in tandem with the cultures of this country. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, some of the provisions in this Bill are unconstitutional. What does the Constitution say about somebody who has committed a crime? Who is supposed to prove that he has committed a crime? The person is presumed innocent until proved guilty by a court of law. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, when this Bill was being drafted, did they refer to Section 77 of the Constitution?"
