    "content": "It is only through marriage that we can get a family, which is the basic social unit. Therefore, because of our requirements of the day as human beings and the complications, the certificate and registration of marriage has become important. In case of succession, the children or the spouse of the deceased would require a document to attest to the fact that they were actually married. The fact that it takes too long, the red tape involved and the process being costly, it has been prohibitive for some people who intend to have the certificate to have their marriages sanctified. Therefore, I want to support the Hon. Member for proposing to this House that the registration and certification of marriages should be decentralised to the counties and sub-counties for ease of the would-be married people. I support."
