"content": "It is on record that when Hon. Jaldesa was a Member of Parliament representing Isiolo County, she raised the issues of gender in this House. She further raised more awareness and advocated for gender equality. I have no doubt in my mind that she will change the Commission. Together with other Members, we will support her. I agree with the Leader of the Majority Party that it is time they up their game, and if Hon. Rehema and her members will not perform, then I do not know who will change the Commission. With those few remarks, I support."

"content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I support my namesake, alumni and a friend, for having been nominated to the position of Chairperson of the National Gender and Equality Commission. She is an alumnus of the famous Garbatula High School. I support her 100 per cent because I know her. She is competent and up to the task, and she will succeed as long as Parliament supports the Commission. People talk about gender when they do not know the difference between gender and sex. The National Gender and Equality Commission is not a women’s commission. If we want a women’s commission, we should think of setting up one. The National Gender and Equality Commission was derived from the 1995 Beijing Conference. During the 1995 Beijing Conference, the world decided that we needed to have equal opportunity for both men and women. Fortunately, next year, the world will mark the 30th anniversary of the Beijing Platform for Action (BPfA) and one of the actions is to ensure equality for both men and women in this country. Kenya has done a lot. Kenya has made progress in terms of the two-thirds gender in many places, including Parliament and our universities. Today, majority of students in public universities are women, and courses like medicine, engineering and law are dominated by women. That is the affirmative action that was championed by the late, former President, Hon. Daniel Arap Moi. Given the right stewardship, the National Gender and Equality Commission will deliver. I am confident that we have done the right thing in supporting it."

"content": " Thank you very much, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for giving me the opportunity to contribute to the Motion regarding the consideration of nominees for appointment to the National Gender and Equality Commission. The first person I want to congratulate is Madam Rehema Dida Jaldesa. She is a lady of integrity. She has worked in various sectors in this country. We have previously worked with her in different areas. She is a performer and a go-getter. Therefore, along with her colleague, Michael Nzomo, I wish to congratulate them. I wish them the best. As a Chairperson, and being a lady, I know she is going to achieve a lot, especially in addressing issues that are affecting women in this country. It is on that note that I would also like to appreciate His Excellency the President, who recently stood in support of the issues affecting women. Therefore, I stand to congratulate that team. I have a lot of faith in the Chairperson, Hon. Jaldesa, and the team. I believe they will perform and bring changes in this country. Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker, for the time you have given me to congratulate those hardworking individuals."
