    "content": "had rushed like other countries, led by the US, to pass similar legislation, especially the Prevention of Terrorism Act. All the countries that passed that legislation later ended up in problems. In this country, we had to repeal it. My caution is, while the Bill is well intended, unless it is properly looked into; it is one that would create more harm than good. Lastly, I have heard many Members talk about cyber bullying and people accessing their phones and sending all sorts of messages. It will interest Members to know that all those issues that appear to concern us are not necessarily stopped by this Bill except the provision of cyber bullying. Cyber bullying is actually distinct and different from what confronts us. We will have to look at this Bill critically or at any other law if we want to enact legislation that will shield us from all those shenanigans that we spoke about. But to assume that once we pass this Bill, our problems as enunciated by Hon. (Ms.) Chege are gone, is actually a misnomer."
