    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I hope I can still continue tomorrow. I support the Bill. I applaud the men who have stood up and supported this Bill. It is good to note that a lot of the people who wake up early in the morning to vote are women. This is a special gift that we have given to the women of this country. When we talk about the issue of gender, I foresee in 20 years to come, we might have men asking us to support them. We will give back. I also appreciate that we are making a way not only for ourselves, but also for our sisters and daughters who might join this House when we leave. The issue of numbers has come up and how expensive this process can be. However, I want to challenge the political parties. If political parties sincerely do not want Kenyans to go to an extent of having more women or huge numbers in this House, they should come out and support women through financing and protecting them when they go for elective seats."
