• 31 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, there is a lot of noise. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 31 Aug 2016 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairlady, the NGCDF is meant to put the country on an equal development platform. We are saying that we should divide this money equally, and yet the Constitution says that we are supposed to have a grace period for affirmative action to enable marginalised areas to catch up with the rest of the country. view

• 8 Jun 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to contribute to this very important Bill. Ranking is everywhere. Even in our own bodies, you can see how our fingers have been arranged. They have been arranged in the order that one is number one up to the last one, which is the smallest one.

• 21 Apr 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you for this chance. I oppose this Bill for the following reasons: First, I welcome my sisters who have brought the issue of competition in this Bill since that is the way to go. Women make the larger percentage of the population of this country. We need to find out why women do not elect their fellow women rather than bringing Bills to this House.
