    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I would like to speak on the issue of Gender-Based Violence (GBV). About two months ago, a girl of 13 years in Homa Bay was attacked as she was going to bathroom. She was raped by several men. A bottle was put in her private part and eyes gorged out. We had to rush her to Nairobi Women’s Hospital for treatment. Of course, that girl’s life has been destroyed because she was totally and hugely traumatised. These are incidents that happen in our country every day. Just yesterday we heard of case in Kisumu County where a four-year-old girl was raped. I am talking about the Homa Bay case because, to date, nobody has been apprehended. So, I ask our incoming IG to deal decisively with the issue of GBV. We should make it painful for whoever tries to violate our children, whether they are boys or girls. Gender-based violence issues must be dealt with."
