"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. First and foremost, I congratulate Mhe. Francis Waititu, the MP for Juja, for deciding to bring this Law of Contract (Amendment) Bill. The Bill deals with the issue of the guarantor and the borrower. We passed a law here on matrimonial property. As a spouse, you cannot sell family property without the spouse’s consent. That was the reason why many families were losing their homes. You will find one of the spouses has gone to a bank and taken a loan without informing the other spouse. When you guarantee somebody, you do not seek your spouse’s consent. It goes without saying that people can lose family property because of guaranteeing someone. The importance of this law is in the same spirit of the spouse consent."
