"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to indicate that if we could really request the media, for Members who would wish to see, go and look at it yourself. I am a defender of women rights. I would want to request that those women are excellent in their fields. If we have a Commission looking at reserving our historical buildings, I would recommend that Irene be the chairperson. She is an excellent woman in that field, but we are putting her and setting her up as a woman. Once she fails, we will be told as women that we gave you and you did not manage. As women we also have to be strategic. Let us not go for things we do not think we can manage and then later complain as women that we failed. Mr. Speaker, Sir, similarly I want to indicate that the same members - and this applies to all of them - did not tell us what they had positively contributed during the period that they were there. Passion is also seen in many ways. I am glad that Mr. C. Kilonzo actually alluded in his contribution that before I came to Parliament I was not passionate about Parliament. But I have proven myself by being extremely passionate. That is true. But my passion in a lot of things was evident. Way back, I trained Members"
