    "content": "I am glad that this House has taken the first step to discuss, confront and bring this to the attention of the nation so that we all move to the next level which might constitute petitions or protests. I see a revolution coming. In the Non Governmental Organisations (NGO) world where I come from, people would be in the streets today. I know people frown upon these things, but sometimes, as it has been said over and over again, desperate times calls for desperate measures. Sometimes, the people that are disproportionately affected must take charge of these things. I urge everybody, including the leaders, women and youth to stand up and keep everybody accountable. When we go to ask for votes, they should hold us accountable and bring our scorecards in regards to corruption and nepotism which we have accepted that we practice. The women of this country should be put on table and be allowed to speak. I know my time is up, but this is something that is really close to my heart. It breaks my heart to know the constituencies I represent which are the vulnerable groups, the women, youth and everybody else that is usually excluded are disproportionately affected. Perhaps, the answer lies in the standing up of those who are disproportionately affected so that they are counted. Madam Temporary Speaker, I hope that this House, through the Committees and other Ad hoc means will take this to the next level. This discussion should not end today."
