    "content": "On a point order, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. Very serious things are out of order. One is reference to a law that has been repealed. As you know, we passed the Marriage Act last year. One of the legislations that were repealed is what Hon. Wahome was making reference to. It is inappropriate to make reference to a law that does not exist. Neither does it create any crime anymore because it has ceased to exist. The new Marriage Act recognises five types of marriage. One of them is customary marriage, on which it is clear. Of course, I have been quoted out of context – that I have said that any woman you walk around with is your wife. I have been talking to Hon. Wahome but she does not look like she can be my wife. Neither does she have the capacity. I am talking about the references that were made by the women’s movement. That thinking itself is very archaic. It does not exist in law."
