    "content": "our male counterparts to give us support in this Bill. We know culturally the burden of a breadwinner has been left for the male but passing this Bill and empowering more women, it will mean even women who are going to be in this Parliament, in other elective positions or decision- making positions are going to reduce the burden of being breadwinner from the male counterparts. I want to support this Bill because when you look globally, so many other countries which are developing now have tried. When you look at Rwanda, Uganda and Tanzania, they have tried to include women in elective positions. Being among the East African players, as a country, we are progressing well in terms of women inclusion. So, by passing this Bill, it means that we are at par with other countries that want to change the representation especially in the two Houses."
