    "content": "us. This is not about terrorism. Let us look at Clauses 4 and 5, which are very dangerous clauses especially for us as politicians. I want us again to look at Clause 15. Again, hon. Duale referred to it. When you look at the word “offensive”, there are some other words which may be moot, but when you say “offensive” and he used me as an example by saying that I look at him in a given way, what he did not clarify is that I usually look at him very badly. He might consider that offensive if I look at him badly. Sometimes, I even say in my Face Book page that hon. Duale is not a good debater. He may find that offensive. If he finds that offensive and charges me in the police, who determines what is offensive? If we leave room for interpretation, and I am speaking as a lawyer who graduated amongst the top three in my year but do I say, if we leave loose wordings for anybody to interpret the way they want, it is very dangerous. I want us to also look at Clause 17 on the stripping of women. It is very good provision because it takes away the provision of the Sexual Offences Act, which gives stricter penalties. Today, I am told there are guys who are facing death penalty under the Sexual Offences Act, but this law gives 20 years! You are taking away my dignity. I want a person who strips a woman to be sent in for life."
