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.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, I want first of all, to congratulate the Assistant Minister that in this one, he has done a very good job by acknowledging that domestic violence is a crime under the penal code. He needs to notice that it is now unconstitutional under the Kenyan Constitution because it provides that we shall protect a Kenya citizen from violence both from private and public sources. Private source is your spouse, if the Members did not know.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, what I would want to ask him to clarify is in relation to the last part of his statement where he said that if it is not withdrawn, then the Government will have no alternative other than to declare him persona non grata, and give him 24 hours notice to leave the country.

Could he clarify that should the Nigerian Government, by any reason return him to Kenya, when prima facie he has actually assaulted his wife, what they seem to be disputing is the gravity--- But assault is assault; whether minor or grievous. Could he, please, declare him persona non grata and order him to leave this country within 24 hours?

On a point of order, Mr. Speaker, Sir. Is the Member in order to be misleading us by saying that he will be waiting for conviction from a court of law, when, in his own statement, he says they will not do that? Please, just give the 24 hour notice.

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I need direction from this House because I like truth and justice. My attention has been drawn to information that hon. Waibara has never raised Questions. I sit in this House and he has asked Questions severally in English. I think the House needs to defend a Member when there is misleading information that is going out to the public. He has asked Questions more than once. He has even asked me to help him by asking a supplementary question. He said that in English. He speaks very good English!

On a point of order, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir. On the same light, we would want the Deputy Leader of Government Business to explain why the Cabinet cannot sit until midnight because they are not any special than us. If we can sit here until midnight, they can also sit until midnight. Why can they not cancel their international trips because we have also cancelled our international trips so that we can sit here and implement the Constitution? Every time there is a hitch in the implementation of the Constitution, it is brought before us. We also have hitches but ...

Thank you, Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, for giving me this opportunity. In relation to the matter raised by Dr. Bonny Khalwale, though he said that he was not making his maiden speech, perhaps, he would want to say whether, indeed, he has now made his maiden speech. My understanding of the Standing Orders is that you cannot transact business until you have made your maiden speech. Therefore, according to me, that is his maiden speech. Secondly, I want to welcome Dr. Khalwale and as the new entrant, we will induct him. The Constitution is very clear that even though he ...
