"content": "Mbithuka. I happen to have met them during the interview, and I can confirm that they are highly qualified nominees. I wish them all the best. As it has been said, the National Gender and Equality Commission, which was established to promote gender equality, faces several challenges. One of the challenges is limited resources. In fact, NGEC often operates with inadequate financial and human resources. They usually have very few staff and are allocated meagre resources. Due to the limited resources, they are unable to deliver. It is my hope that this time round, they will be given enough resources to enable them to deliver. There are many issues that they are supposed to address. There is the two-thirds gender rule, which has never been achieved. There is also the issue of the boy-child, which is a problem. In my opinion, femicide could be attributed to the fact that we are not empowering the boy-child, and they feel left behind. Because of the feeling that the girl-child has been empowered, the boy-child experiences a sense of inadequacy when they interact with the girl- child. This, in turn, has led to increase in femicide cases. However, I believe that if we allocate NGEC enough resources, they will deliver. I would like to single out Michael Nzomo Mbithuka, who is an albino and very qualified. He has worked in various organisations and has delivered very well. He is also good in resource mobilisation, which is essential for such a commission, and I am sure he will deliver. So, I support the two nominees and congratulate them."

"content": " We have been talking about body parts and everything. It is high time we learned about our body parts, all of them, so that when we speak of one, we do not say that someone is losing integrity. We have the eye, the head, the mouth and the chest. There is nothing wrong in talking about any part of the body. There is nothing inappropriate about it. Someone will tell you that you do not have integrity. If you go to a Kenyan hospital, we have a problem explaining our problems because we want to remain subservient to tradition. If you have diarrhoea, you want to say: \"I feel like my stomach is running.\" You do not want to speak about what is hurting you or where the problem is. As a male, when you go to the hospital, you want to hide by saying: \"I feel a scratch\", and you do not want to say why you are scratching because of culture. Come on. Every body part is essential. It is not bad to mention its name. When we, as women, talk about our body parts, you definitely think we are disabled. We are not. So, let us treat each and every department equally. We should not even glorify the fact that women have been given that role. Provided you are a leader, you deserve a position."
