    "content": "It is important for her to remember that one of the missions and goals of the IPU Forum of Women Parliamentarians is to ensure that they support the marginalized communities. For her, that means representing the Ogiek, Kalenjins, Kipsigis, Maasais and Kikuyus in Nakuru; some of who would argue that they have been marginalized. Therefore, any experiences that she can gain from the discussions with her colleagues will be important to help us here, in terms of developing new legislation. Once again, Madam Temporary Speaker, I convey my sincere congratulations to Sen. Kihika upon assuming her new position, which she should squeeze hard. Let it be one that we can look forward to and say, “This really benefitted Kenyans”. She should learn everything she can, come back here and help us so that she can be the best mentor to women in this country. We know that there is a lot of politics out there; some of them have the “me too” debate; I am sure that she is aware of that. I hope that we will not be talking about that debate here in this country. We should try to find a way to put the “me too” debate out, so that we can encourage women to fight for their rights and stand up so that we can develop this country. I congratulate her."
