    "content": "Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I will be brief. I want to take this opportunity to support this Bill. This is the Third Reading and we have been persuaded enough. We have cited biblical writings on the role of women and their social and cultural roles. We know women are equal performers as men. I would like this Bill to be passed so that Kenya can be at per with other countries. The women of Kenya will have opportunities to serve in the various leadership positions. We will also benefit from the decrease in number of nominated women both in the National Assembly and County Assemblies and reduce the wage Bill which is a threat to the Kenyan economy at the moment. We will also have women participating in the Senate and gubernatorial positions so that we have equity at the leadership and policy decision-making positions."
