"content": "If you look at Article 81 of the Constitution on the things that we have not attained in this Constitution, gender equality is something that we tried in the 11th Parliament. We did not manage to get the numbers. This time, I beg my brothers and sisters who are in this House to stand to be counted as Members who have actually passed this Bill. It has already been mentioned about the Hon. ladies. I want to address the worries that have been raised in this House and outside, and especially in the media about the calibre of the women who are nominated in this House. Some Hon. Members have said that some of the ladies who come here are from towns. I want to mention Hon. Leshoomo who was nominated in this House. She has been elected in Samburu County two times. I would like to know whether she is a slay queen. Look at Hon. Martha Wangari. She was nominated to the Senate and now she is back as Member for Gilgil. Look at Hon. Naisula. There are also gracious ladies like Hon. Mbarire and Hon. Millie Mabona. They are women who have contributed immensely to discussions of this House and they are doing amazing work out there. We also had Hon. Njoki Ndung’u who also came up with very great amendments in this House. Hon. Janet Teyiaa who is a gracious lady from Kajiado was nominated in the 11th Parliament. She fought her way. She is now the woman representative for Kajiado County. I have heard Members talking about slay queens. I would like to ask nominee No. 001 who is a nominated Member to tell this House whether he is a slay king and which favours he gave to his political party to nominate him."
