"content": "Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir. I challenge any Member of this House to tell us the percentage of women in their counties or households. Having said that women being 50 per cent of the population have given birth to 50 per cent of all the other members of this nation, somebody who was not born of a woman should prove to us one day that he is the tenth wonder of the world. It is that person who will contradict and deny the women of Kenya this very limited space. We are like an island of people who talk about democracy, but do not practice it, having cited best examples from a country like Rwanda. If Rwanda can have 64 per cent of legislators being women and almost the same case applies to Uganda and Tanzania, then, we are left in a small island of a retrogressive nation, that speaks progress, but does not implement it in reality. This is not something that belongs to the Jubilee Administration or the Coalition for Reforms and Democracy (CORD). This is an issue that touches on Kenyans for Kenyans for the benefit of Kenyans. I rest my case. Thank you very much, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
