CAMPAIGN AGAINST GENDER-BASED VIOLENCE SHOULD BE CONTINOUS

HON. ILLOS NYONI: Thank you Mr Speaker Sir. My contribution on the GBV issue brought by Hon. Masara, is that the Constitution of Zimbabwe, Chapter 4 is very clear on human rights including rights to security.
HON. NYONI: These rights are not only for men but for children, wives, mothers, sisters& all other women out there. We know we have our culture in Zim. Culturally at home, the man is the one who enforces discipline to the wife, children& anybody who lives in that particular home.
HON. NYONI: We know that it is done in some instances through using the whip. However, we know that culture is dynamic. It is important that bad aspects of culture be put away so that we move forward by reducing violence.

OUR HUSBANDS TAKE OUR CARS, SALARIES AND SPEND IT WITH GIRLFRIENDS: HON NHARI

HON. VAIRET NHARI: Thank you Mr Speaker, I want to add a few words on the issue of violence even members of Parliament we suffer from domestic violence. @GMCZimbabwe @wlsazim @womensvoicezw @MAZ_Zim
HON. NHARI: If I am given a motor vehicle, and take it to the constituency, the husband will deny me the use of that vehicle saying he is the one who permitted me to go to Parliament.
HON. NHARI: So, you must not use the car and female Members of Parliament will end up using public transport to conduct Parliament business. The husbands take our salaries and spend it on beer and girlfriends.

WOMEN ARE USUALLY INSULTED FOR WANTING TO CONTEST ELECTIONS

HON. ELIZABETH MASUKU: Thank you, Mr Speaker, for giving me this opportunity to debate on this. We have faced very difficult times in life. @GMCZimbabwe @WiPSUZim @wlsazim @YoungWomenInst @unwomenzw @UN_Women @lilomatic
HON. MASUKU: Women are abused by being beaten for failing to cook, to wash the laundry and the husband sometimes would not have bought soap to wash the laundry. Abuse on women and youths is very bad. It adversely affects the communities in which we live.
HON. MASUKU: Mr. Speaker Sir, where we reside in communities, they should be laws that are given to kraal heads and chiefs that there should not be any abuse against women and youths.

WOMEN ALSO ABUSE OTHER WOMEN AND MEN IN GBV

HON. MURAMBIWA: Mr Speaker Sir. I rise to support motion on domestic violence that was moved by Hon. Bhuda-Masara. Domestic violence is occurring in different places.There are occasions when we see men abusing women& also vise versa
HON. MURAMBIWA: There is the violence of women against women. For example, we have witnessed that in the families if a child has failed at school, the husband tells the wife that your child has failed at school. @WiPSUZim @wlsazim @lilomatic @advocatemahere @GMCZimbabwe
HON. MURAMBIWA: If the child is not properly married, the father accuses the mother of failing to look after the child properly and give the blame on the mother forgetting that parenting is a dual process.

BOYS ALSO SUFFER FROM DOMESTIC VIOLENCE LIKE GIRLS

HON ROBSON MAVENYENGWA: Thank you Mr. Speaker for allowing me the opportunity to add my voice to the motion brought by Hon. Bhuda concerning gender based violence which is mainly targeted against women and children. @wlsazim
HON MAVENYENGWA: I am a parent, I have a girl child and it pains me to witness the girl child being abused especially when they live with people who are not their natural parents. If people live with a step mother in most cases, they are ill treated.@YetTrust @NAYOZimbabwe
HON MAVENYENGWA: They grow up in an environment that is not conducive for children. There was a case where we ended up having to call the police because the stepmother was ill treating the child. @Y4pdZ @Youth4SDGsZim @NYDT1 @Youthdecidezw @moysarzim

WHEN ARE MEN GOING TO HAVE FREE SCREENING FOR PROSTATE CANCER?

HON. ILLOS NYONI: I heard the Minister saying the facilities are there for screening from 40 years upwards, where they are screened for cervical cancer and other cancers but for men you have to pay through the nose.
HON. NYONI: What arrangements or facilities are you putting in place for men to get this screening for free? You highlighted that this has to be done annually. Thank you. @healthtimeszim @theNCI @AmericanCancer @SU2C @BidenCancer @CR_UK @MoHCCZim @WHO
MINISTER MANGWIRO: Yes, screening of cancers in general is quite expensive for prostate cancer. Government policy is that anyone can get this screening done.
