Zuleikha is grateful that her father’s postings abroad exposed her to a myriad of opportunities, which impacted on her life positively. While studying in South Africa, she recalls that she went through the stages of anger over apartheid. The realization of Zuleikha that one needed to be in politics to influence policy formulation prompted her to join politics. Initially, Zuleikha sought the Kaloleni parliamentary seat but was dissuaded. In parliament she has pushed the government to fund the National Youth Council.

Pia, katika sekta ya siasa, utaona kuwa wananchi wamezoea kupewa hongo katika maswala ya kuwachagua viongozi. Jambo hili limewafanya Wakenya kuenda njia mbaya kwa sababu mara nyingi, wananchi huenda wakamchagua mtu atakayewapatia pesa zaidi, atakayewanunulia nguo au chakula ili wamukubali kama kiongozi. Mara nyingi, mtu atatumia pesa nyingi na akiingia katika uongozi atatafuta njia za kuregesha zile pesa zake. Kando na kuwachagua viongozi wabaya kwa sababu ya hongo, kuna shida ya kuwa wananchi wetu, kwa sababu ya kutegemea sana kupewa hongo na wanasiasa, wanapunguza nafasi yao ya kujibunia njia tofauti tofauti za kujiimarisha kisiasa. Mara nyingi utamsikia mtu ako na ...

Shukrani sana Mhe. Spika, kwa kunipa nafasi hii. Nataka kuunga mkono mapendekezo katika malalamishi haya. Mwanzo, kwa sababu katika benki za kiislamu, sheria zake huwa ni za kiutu zaidi. Nakubali kuwa baadhi ya senti za Serikali hazitaharibika zikiwekwa katika benki kama hizo. Pesa za Serikali pia hazitaliwa ovyo ovyo na benki zenye kulaghai watu na benki zenye tamaa ya kula pesa za Serikali ambazo zinahitajika kutumika kwa wananchi humu nchini, ambao wana shida nyingi. Jambo lingine ambalo nakubaliana nalo ni kuweka vikwazo katika asilimia ya pesa ambazo Serikali kuu inaweza kuchukua kama mkopo kutoka benki zozote. Kiwango cha asilimia tano ...

Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Chairman, for this opportunity. I rise to support this amendment because as Hon. Kaluma was saying, ODM Party, for instance, nominated a woman who was defeated by a man. Rwanda, for instance, is the country in the world with many women in Parliament. It is because political parties put more women to stand in general elections. So, we will be encouraging political parties to do so. The more women are nominated by political parties, the more women will be elected.
