    "content": "Thank you Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker for giving me this opportunity. I hereby rise in support of the amendment. However, I would recommend that this be done in progression. It may not be easy to achieve that target at once. Under normal circumstances, it is a fact that Kenyan women, and I stand to be corrected, normally enjoy voting for men even when they are the majority. When you go to hospitals, you find that they prefer to visit male gynaecologists for delivery. So, these are norms of this country. As much as we would like that to happen, I suggest that this country needs to try to change its ways of doing things, especially when it comes to electioneering. Most women have been discouraged. If you can remember during the Moi era, women used to be roughed up. They were embarrassed in public. They shied away as a result of the misgivings that they received."
