"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, first of all, I want to thank the Member for Ol Jorok. This thing has become a serious business in our country. The Bible and the Quran tell us to respect the institution of marriage and the family. If this Clause passes the way it is, very many Members of this House will lose their properties because they make many promises every day. Every day, after the rise of the House, they make promises to many people. It is not only the male Members who make such promises, it is both male and female Members. Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, why do you pay for something that is trial and error? This is trial and error. It is like gambling. So, let us stop. If you want to marry my daughter, come straight to me, pay the dowry and marry her. We must stop this culture in our country. If you want to marry, follow the due process and marry. You do not just sit somewhere on Wabera Street at 5.30 p.m. and give promises to young girls. We should stop that practice."
