• 26 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Speaker. I want to take this opportunity to oppose the Bill. I do not oppose it for the sake of opposing it. Issues that concern women have been a very big struggle in this country. Every time any issue touching on women is brought to this House or any other place, there is always a general negative attitude towards it. I do not think by now, as women sitting in this House, we should continue--- No! It is about the women. I do not think that we should continue--- view

• 26 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: What I am raising is very serious. The Leader of the Majority Party, please listen in silence. I want to be categorical. What the court came up with was a formula to cure an anomaly which is already in the Constitution. This House can be dissolved anytime. I think women should go to court and be enjoined in the case which is there because enough is enough. We cannot take it anymore. We must be given what is due to us. What we want is a formula. This Bill was meant to have been passed on 27th August, this year. ... view
• 26 Oct 2016 in National Assembly: I oppose this Bill and I want all women to oppose this Bill. Women have fought enough. We went to Beijing, we have done everything that we needed to do but nothing is working. So, this time, it is finished. view
