The CRADLE is one of the MP’s dream come true. She founded the organization that promotes the rights of children since 1997. 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.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I would like to indicate that if we could really request the media, for Members who would wish to see, go and look at it yourself. I am a defender of women rights. I would want to request that those women are excellent in their fields. If we have a Commission looking at reserving our historical buildings, I would recommend that Irene be the chairperson. She is an excellent woman in that field, but we are putting her and setting her up as a woman. Once she fails, we will be told as women that ...

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Sepaker, Sir. Is the Minister in order to impute improper motive on Dr. Khalwale? It was raised before by Dr. Khalwale and we left it. But we are leaving Dr. Khalwale to look like he has a vendetta against that person. These matters were brought before our Committee by somebody else and not by Dr. Khalwale. We looked at them, whether they were letters or affidavits. It is not about Dr. Khalwale. The Committee dealt with them.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, could the Assistant Minister, please, clarify between the boy and girl child who is most vulnerable to abuse and who, between the boy and girl child, has problems accessing education because it is only in Central Kenya where there is parity but in the rest of the country the girl child suffers? Who, therefore, deserves more programme input?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the hon. Assistant Minister in order to mislead the House? I did not know that he was going to answer that way because I would have actually brought a report from the same Ministry that says that the girl child is the most vulnerable and gives figures of the vulnerability of the girl child. Could the Assistant Minister, please, answer correctly instead of giving a political answer? Give us a programmatic answer.

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I need your guidance and direction on this. I rose on a point of order that the Assistant Minister was misleading the House. Again on this one, he is misleading the House despite the fact that I know. If I know that he is misleading the House, because I have this information, should I not rise on a point of order and challenge him on that, despite Standing Order No.41? I need your direction on this because I did a study for the Ministry and it has actually done the direct opposite ...

Mr. Speaker, Sir, yesterday, unfortunately, we watched as a young girl died as consequence of the doctors strike and the Government has been aware all along that the doctors are on strike. Is he waiting for another crisis before he can act in the matatu industry?
