    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Kshs7.3 billion will go a long way towards ensuring that every school has electricity so that we can implement the laptop project. As women who were elected in this country, it is unfortunate that we sit in a Parliament where we are considered as Members of Parliament, but we are discriminated against because we do not have a budget similar to that of our colleagues in this House to participate in development activities at the county level. That is the case and yet, our colleagues continue to add towards their budgets to ensure that they have funds to work within their constituencies. I hope that when our Bill will be introduced in this Parliament, it will be passed. All those who are watching will ensure that they put sufficient pressure on their Members of Parliament to ensure that not only will this be the Government that will empower women--- We hope that this Government will not be the one that will come and abolish the positions of female Members of Parliament because we were voted and voted heavily into the Jubilee Government to ensure that the rights of women and youth in this country are protected. We must become productive Members."
