    "content": "and signed. It is a shame. This is robbery without violence. We will be naming and shaming them. We will be looking at the list of the people who came in, signed and left because they want to please their masters. It is also a shame the way we look at the women in this nation.Yesterday, there was a case in Kisumu where some women who had met to discuss development were harassed and beaten up just because some people’s DNA material reads violence. We want to stand with those women. As a Member of this House, and as a woman leader, I call upon the police to crack the whip on those hooligans who went to harass those women. Women need to be given a chance in all corners of this nation. Firstly, they should enjoy their freedom of association. Secondly, they have freedom to assemble in any part of this nation. We would not like to see such cases going on. We have around 1.6 million children who are ready to sit for national examinations. One of the Opposition leaders was on record saying that the children will not die if they do not sit for the examination. That is a shame. Unless the person who made that statement never went to school – Of course, he is a class six drop out – nobody would joke with the minds and the emotions of our children by trying to say that their examinations can be moved to some later dates. So, we are ready. It is 33 days to go to the repeat presidential elections so that we can, again, see the will of the Kenyans. Thousands of them queued and their voice was heard. I am very sure that this time round, the Supreme Court will respect the sovereignty of the people of this nation as they vote for their President – the one and only Uhuru Muigai Kenyatta, who has the interests of this nation at heart, and who has a development agenda for this nation. As Members of this House, ours is a commitment to serve the people who voted for us. Thank you."
