    "content": "that the Judiciary will walk with us through this process. Even as we call upon the Judiciary to be the guardian of the rights of PwDs, let me say this as one of the people who is passionate about human rights. Land rights, civic rights, PWDs rights and any form of right, is as good as people living with their rights. Therefore, I urge the Judiciary that when a matter concerning PWDs comes up, they should assist us by setting a precedent. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, being a celebrated academician and having taught law for a long time, you know what the precedent by the Judiciary can do to a society. We have landmark rulings that have been made here and even abroad, which could change our perception and the way society views PWDs. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, even as you go on your academics sojourn, you should in future consider factoring in the issues of PWDs. I am willing to be under your tutelage, together with Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve, so that we go to uncharted waters to ensure that the rights of the PWDs are factored. I hope Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve will be among those who will bring amendments on Article 54 of the Constitution to enhance the rights of PWDs. Sen. (Dr.) Musuruve should be given an opportunity to lead us on the issues that PWDs face."
