Millie has received the YWCA Democracy Award and the Eve woman of the year for human rights and gender. Her political tipping point came when she served as a delegate at the Bomas of Kenya, during the constitutional drafting process. ODM party nominated her to Parliament 2008 and she clinched the Mbita seat in the 2013 election.

I am dealing with the Reproductive Healthcare Bill which I have sponsored. It is before the Budget and Appropriations Committee. Hon. Kihika’s Bill is in the Second Reading in the Senate. Once we harmonise the Bills, I do not mind letting go of mine. In any event, I have already brought many other Bills in the House. Can we find a way of harmonising them? I request the House leadership to deal with this very speedily because we are not using our time prudently. We have dealt with three similar matters in the Budget and Appropriations Committee. This is the ...

Thank you, Hon. Speaker. With your indulgence, I just wanted to raise an issue of concern. There was a day that a matter was raised on this Floor when I was away about ranking by opinion pollsters. In the last three months, I have been ranked number 305 by one opinion poll. I have been ranked number 80 and over 270. I do not know what it is now. Given that I am a brand, when I am ranked worst or I am near the worst, they bring my photo ahead. I want to indicate on the Floor of the ...

. I have worked hard. I am a woman of steel. The last time she ranked me number over 270 I was still elected as Member of Suba North with a margin of over 10,000 votes. I beat my opponent with a margin of over 10,000 after she ranked me over 270.

So, I want to tell her not to get into the politics of Homa Bay because others are collateral damage. If you actually look at this opinion poll, one of the things that happened is, last week they did the exact thing they did last time and I was quiet, but this time round we will go down with you. Nitawatwanga because I am not going to joke with you. Look for votes the same way Millie Gesa Gesa looks for votes, do not come and use fake technical things. How did you know you will be ranked number one ...

What I can say as an MP who oversees NG-CDF, when I go to the ground, I talk about NG-CDF, I do not look for works that other people, including work done by the Ministry in charge of water, have done and put my names on them and declare that I have done water in Gorogoro or elsewhere. Tell us what you are doing with the projects given? As a Member of Parliament use NG-CDF, as a woman representative use National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NG- AAF), as an MCA, if there is any money use it or as a ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I am sorry for interrupting my good classmate, who is making a very good presentation. I was just consulting with my two colleagues and we are of great concern that there is something that took the whole world by storm and was calming especially after a heated earlier session. So, we are just wondering when the Parliament of Kenya is going to do its own version of Jerusalema Challenge. I am willing to be the Chair with the Speaker. We want a Jerusalema caucus. The Leader of the Majority Party is saying no because ...
