1.0 INTRODUCTION 

Last year, on the 21 st day of May 2009, we presented our third People’s Budget. We 

were very specific on what we expected the government to prioritize. We appreciate 

the efforts made by the government, especially, the decision to withdraw the fuel 

guzzlers that were being used by the Ministers and other top government officials 

and to introduce small engine cars (Volkswagen Passat). The savings the government 

has made must be put into projects that target the grassroot communities. 

Another positive move by the government is in the area of allocation of resources 

to build schools in each constituency. However, our specific proposal on this was 

for the government to build schools in specified settlements to cater for the needs of 

children from urban informal settlements. This demand has not yet been fulfilled and 

we will give it first priority this year. 

The year 2010, has presented us with another wonderful opportunity in the way 

of the proposed constitution, which has articulated a lot of progressive chapters 

and clauses on the Bill of Rights. Our clarion call as members of Nairobi People’s 

settlements Network and Kutoka Network in partnership with Muungano Wa 

Wanavijiji and Kisumu Social Rights, is that the time to realize this change is now, 

and we must all come out in large numbers to vote for the proposed constitution. 

This is the only chance we have as a generation to decide the nature and type of 

constitution that we want for our children and future generations. 

We, the voters, must help right the wrong we have lived with for over 45 years; 

as this will guarantee us a say in how resources at the lowest level are raised and 

used. It is only through our own efforts that we shall be able to institute changes that 

will improve our lives and those of our children, our grandchildren and even great 

grandchildren. 

This year we are putting the government on notice. We shall join forces with all 

like- minded individuals and institutions nationally, to ensure that these proposals 

are not left out at resource allocation level. We will strive to make sure that the 

resources are actually availed by the responsible ministry.

2.0 OUR KEY PRINCIPLES 

The primary responsibility of the government is to respect, protect, promote and 

fulfill all human rights of its citizens. To achieve this, government must do a number 

of things. These include, enacting of appropriate laws and policies. But above all, it 

must provide money and other resources to address the basic needs of its citizens. 

A government’s commitment and priorities to fulfill human rights is determined 

by how it allocates its resources (national budget). It does not matter how good a 

constitution or laws are. Resources must be provided by the government to make 

things happen. Every government avails resources through its annual budget. That 

is why the national budget is very important to us and should be very important to 

all the citizens. 

It is through the budget that we can tell which areas are most valued by the 

government, whose needs are most considered, who it rewards most and who it 

does not. It is through the budget that we shall know whether residents of Mathare 

or Lavington will or will not get a road, a hospital, water or electricity. It is through 

the budget that we shall know whether or not the children of Korogocho will attend 

good schools and it is through the budget that we shall tell whether or not the people 

of Viwandani will have access to clean water. Only through the budget will we know 

whether or not the people of Raila Village will be able to access basic services, and 

whether the children of Mathare will die of cholera. In summary, the budget that the 

government reads determines who will live in dignity and who will not. 

We believe, therefore, that the budget is the most effective tool of improving our 

standards of living; so that we will no longer be worried about where our next meal 

will come from, whether we will have access to sanitation facilities and where the 

children will go to school. That is why we are here today, as we had promised last 

year, at the same venue. And that is why we shall be here again next year. We have 

a right and an important role to play in the key decisions on the budget process. A 

budget can only be good if the process is good. No process is more crucial in our 

lives than budget formulation, implementation and monitoring. 


6 

2.1 The Key Principles 

This budget is based on the following key principles: 

1. That each human being, by virtue of being human, is a holder of rights. 

The government has the obligation to respect, protect, promote and fulfill 

all these rights. Therefore, the budget must be an instrument for the 

progressive allocation of resources towards the protection and fulfillment 

of these rights. 

2. That the national budget has to substantially cater for and give priority to the 

urgent needs of the majority, based on the principles of non-discrimination 

and equality. 

3. That people have a role to play in the budget process. They have to play an 

active role in the budget formulation, implementation and monitoring. 

4. That we subscribe to the principles of transparency, accountability and 

zero-tolerance to corruption in the management of national and public 

affairs, and resources. We believe that to end the culture of corruption and 

impunity, we must start the fight from the top. This does not mean that we 

will spare the corrupt at lower levels. 

5. That levels of spending by the government must be adequate to improve 

services to poor communities and stimulate overall economic growth for 

the majority of the population, especially women, youth, the disabled and 

the elderly. 

6. That national planning and budgeting should be managed to make the 

formal and informal economy more inclusive, on the one hand by giving 

the poor greater access to resources, skills and other services, and on the 

other by guiding the economy towards growth, universal wealth creation 

and sustainable employment-creating activities. 


7 

3.0 SPECIFIC PROPOSALS 

3.1 Revenue 

We recommend: 

• That the recommendations of the Ndung’u Commission on irregularly 

allocated public land alongside other commissions’ recommendations i.e., 

Kriegler and the Waki Commissions, be implemented without any further 

delay. 

• That top government officials take pay cuts. It has become apparently clear 

that the President of Kenya is among the highest paid in the world. However, 

this kind of package is not commensurate with the GDP of the country. 

Therefore, His Excellency Hon. Mwai Kibaki should lead by example by 

reducing his remuneration by 20-30% followed by the Prime Minister, Vice 

President, Ministers and all Members of Parliament (MPs). 

• That all Kenyans pay taxes. In our last budget we proposed introduction 

of taxation for constitutional offices (i.e. MPs and judges). We emphasize 

the same and further recommend the immediate enactment of legislation 

to specifically provide for the taxation of all Members of Parliament and 

judges. 

• That the Government take immediate steps to recover all monies obtained 

through corruption and those involved be held accountable and face the full 

force of the law. 

• That all records of vehicles returned by various ministers and their current 

values be made public before being auctioned and that the proceeds realized 

from the sales be used to finance building of schools in the urban people’s 

settlements. 

• That the proposed taxation on idle land or undeveloped land be implemented 

forthwith. 

3.2 Taxation 

We propose the following: 

• Price control for basic services be introduced and strictly implemented if the 

ordinary mwananchi is to survive and, at least, vote in the referendum and 


8 

The prices of basic essential commodities need to be controlled for the poor’s sake 

2012 General Elections. The prices of essential commodities produced and 

manufactured within the country should be reduced as listed below: 

1. Flour 40/= per 2 kg 

2. Bread 20/= per 500 g 

3. Milk 16/= per 500 ml 

4 Sugar 30/= per kg 

5. Cooking oil 45/= per ltr 

6. Rice 45/= per kg 

7. Paraffin 25/= per ltr 

8. Petrol 52/= per ltr 

9. Salt 10/= per kg 

10. Tea leaves 10/= per 50 g 

11. Match box 1/= per box of 45 sticks 

• That the government speed up with the process of taxation of Members of 

Parliament. 

• That physically challenged persons be trained on vocational skills and 

receive funding to start small businesses. 

• That resources be set aside for revamping of collapsed industries such 

as KICOMI and Miwani Sugar Company, for the purpose of creating 

employment opportunities. 

• That opportunities for local investment and entrepreneurship be increased 

through provision of low interest loans and subsidies. 

• That the government enforces the Employment Act so that employers stop 

abuse of casual workers. 


9 

3.3 Land and housing 

We recommend: 

• That the Ministry of Housing in partnership with the community, private 

sector and other non-state actors conduct an audit of the quality and standards 

of houses at the decanting site since there are houses which already have 

cracks on the walls and the floors, an indication that building standards and 

quality were compromised. 

• That the Ministry of Finance increase allocations to expand slum-upgrading 

programs and to facilitate access to credit and finance for livelihood of 

housing improvement by low-income groups and for government to adapt 

community contracting, procurement and labour-intensive implementation 

methods by engaging more community members in housing and upgrading 

projects. 

• That the Ministry of Housing liaise with other relevant ministries (e.g. Local 

Government) to acquire land with security of tenure for developing human 

settlements, especially in the people’’s settlement and to ensure that all 

genuine residents benefit from the initiative. 

• That at least 12% of government revenue be allocated to development of low 

cost housing in the people’s settlement across Kenya every year, and that rent 

restriction in these settlements be put in place. We recommend that a house 

of 10x10 feet, iron sheet roofed and plastered with water and sanitation and 

electricity services be charged at the rate of Kshs. 500 per month. 

• That the Ministry of Housing make public all the names of people currently 

residing in the decanting site for Kibera Soweto residents to verify genuine 

tenants since there are cases of alleged corruption both from the ministry and 

community leaders. 

• That the government set aside funds to purchase land for the settlement of 

the people in the following areas: Lenana (Dagorreti), Mukuru Kayaba and 

Lunga Lunga (Makadara), Mukuru kwa Reuben and Mukuru Kwa Njenga, 

Maili Saba/Mwengenya, Jada/Kanguruwe and Kwa Mola all in Embakasi. 

Money from the same kit should be used to process and issue title deeds 

to communities in the following settlements: Kibagare, Dam, Kaptagat, 


10 

NITD, Kangemi, Kitusuru (Westlands); Kibera and Mitumba (Lang’ata); 

Korogocho (Kasarani), Kosovo, Muoroto, Mathare 3C, Mashimoni, Thayu 

and all IDP camps. All these settlements are on public land and there is no 

reason why the residents should continue staying there without security of 

tenure. 

3.4 Water and sanitation 

This year, 2010/2011, in addition to last year’s proposals, we are further 

recommending the following: 

• That dumping sites be demarcated and allocated in the people’s settlements 

by the city council and garbage trucks assigned to collect garbage. 

• That proper drainage be constructed for draining storm and waste water thus 

reducing the risk of contracting malaria, bilharzia, and other diseases caused 

by stagnant and/or dirty water. 

• That the Nairobi Water and Sewerage Company, Informal Settlement 

Department institutionalize and implement more stringent control over 

the prices at the water kiosks in the settlements. We are aware that the 

recommended price is Kshs 2 for every 20 litres. However, most residents in 

the settlements pay much more. 

• That regarding the social connection policy, we propose that in addition to 

the funds set aside by the water company, which will provide a subsidy 

for connections for the people in the settlements; that the policy includes a 

provision for a staggered payment schedule. This will cater for those who 

may not be able to raise the money at once. 

• That the service provider put in place mechanisms to ensure provision of 

minimum amounts of free water of 20 litres per day per person. 

• That boreholes in Dagoretti be upgraded and more constructed to deal with 

water shortages in the following places: Ng’ando village, Riruta – village 

and Lenana-Mtego village. 


11 

3.5 Health 

We want to reiterate our proposals for the year 2009/2010 which were not 

given priority by the government. We still expect that the government will take 

responsibility and recommend: 

• That government provide comprehensive support to people living with HIV/ 

AIDS (PLWHAs) and provide level two ARVs which should be extended 

to the rural areas. The government should also invest in nutritious foods for 

PLWHAs. 

• That the government look into the construction of well-equipped dispensaries 

with maternity wings in the people’s settlements to reduce the high maternal 

and infant mortality rate. 

• That sanitary towels be provided for free to school children to help retain 

girls in school. 

• That the government combat gender-based violence and finance gendersensitive 

awareness programs against FGM and forced circumcision for 

males. 

• That in partnership with private sector and non-governmental organizations 

(NGOs), the government conduct periodic health surveys at the household 

level. 

• That the cost of sanitary towels be reduced to Kshs 20 for 10 pieces. 

3.6 Infrastructure 

We do hereby propose that: 

• Fire stations be decentralized to each of Nairobi’s eight and Kisumu’s three 

constituencies. 

• Electricity be provided by the government to the people’s settlements under 

terms similar to the rural electrification program where the rates are not as 

costly. 

• The government construct at least one fire point equipped with modern fire 

fighting machines in each of the people’s settlements to combat the common 

fires. 

• The government build more railway lines to enhance sufficient transportation 


12 

• 

by commuter trains and ease traffic in the city center. 

Current contracting procedures and regulations be reviewed to provide for 

community contracting of infrastructure works. 

3.7 Education 

We recommend that to be able to realize universal Free Primary Education (FPE), 

the government must consider doing the following: 

• Setting aside funds for the construction and equipping of primary and 

secondary schools in the people’s settlements. Resources should be allocated 

towards this and necessary support be given to teachers. 

• Allocating funds to expand existing public schools that serve the slum 

communities since the facilities in these schools are overstretched. For 

example, Kibera slum is only served by three public primary schools despite 

its large population. 

• Allocating resources to cater for children with special needs, such as the 

provision of specialized teachers, specialized equipment, learning and 

teaching materials as well as special diets for children with special needs. 

• Providing trained teachers to non-formal schools which are currently served 

by untrained teachers since these institutions cannot afford to pay trained 

teachers, thereby compromising the quality of education provided within 

the slums. 

• Introducing feeding programs in all schools in the people’s settlements. 

Specifically, we are therefore recommending that, beginning next financial year 

(2010/2011), the government should set aside funds to construct public primary 

schools in the following areas; 

• Lang’ata: at least one primary and one secondary school in each ward 

• Westlands: at least one public school in each ward 

• Kasarani: upgrade existing schools to adequate standards and construct new 

schools in each ward 

• Makadara: at least one primary and one secondary public school in each ward 

• Dagoretti: government to build two public schools (Ng’ndo village, Ngando 

ward, Mtego village Riruta ward) 


13 

• 

• 

• 

Starehe: one secondary school to be constructed 

Mathare: one primary school in each ward 

Kamukunji: one primary and one secondary school in each ward. 

In Kisumu, primary schools should be built in Obunga, Manyatta A and Bandani. 

To enhance the quality of education, more funds should be made available to recruit 

teachers and buy necessary books and equipment. 

3.8 Security and safety 

Security and safety are serious problems in the informal settlements. We are 

recommending that each informal settlement should have a police post. Resources 

should be set aside to re-launch community policing with active participation of the 

people. 

The government should fund popular community-based organizations (CBOs) 

to spearhead community policing and embrace the Kazi kwa Vijana employment 

programs which should be a long-term initiative. Specifically, the government 

should: 

• Ensure that the police are better trained especially in public relations and 

in handling informants or witnesses who provide information to them 

(confidentiality). 

• Fast-track police reforms and initiate civic education programs on security 

and human rights to the police. 

• Ensure total protection of Kenya’s territory and its citizens to avoid invasion 

by neighboring countries and pirates. 

• Continue with the improvement of the quality housing for police officers 

countrywide. 

• Ban all vigilante groups and ensure that corrupt government officials are 

fired and prosecuted. 

• Put up security lights in volatile areas and along the streets and wards in 

Mathare, Kawangware, Westlands and Kasarani. 


14 

3.9 Food security 

Kenyans continue to die during the rainy and dry seasons, which is a worrying 

situation. This is a clear sign of lack of strategy and preparedness by the government. 

Kenyans should not die of hunger or be forced to buy food at exorbitant prices. We 

are therefore recommending that the government: 

• Increase allocations for national schemes e.g. irrigation schemes and 

harvesting of rain water. 

• Increase the number of silos for food storage and increase allocation to the 

National Cereals and Produce Board (NCPB). 

• Put in place systems to deal with influx of products such as milk and also to 

deal with cases like the mass death of livestock due to drought and disease. 

• Regulate the use of genetically modified organisms in the country. 

• Invest in initiatives to mitigate the effects of climate change. 

• Through the Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS), improve their services to 

avoid poor quality products finding their way into the loacal market. 

• Continue with the price subsidies on basic commodities such as maize flour 

which had been introduced in 2009 to cater for the poor and marginalized. 

3.10 Environment 

We recommend that the government: 

• Facilitate creation of community dumping sites where garbage is collected 

regularly. 

• Provide appropriate equipment for trash collection e.g. face masks, 

gumboots, etc. 

• Ban use of polythene bags and re-introduce the gunny bag for garbage 

collection in all residential areas. 

• Initiate nation-wide tree planting and forestation projects. 

• Sensitize communities on the importance and need of sorting trash. 

3.11 Economic and social empowerment 

We recommend that the government: 

• Increase the sports kitty from Kshs 1 million to Kshs 5 million to encourage 


15 

more youth to engage in various sporting activities, and not just football as 

is currently the case. 

• Hasten the establishment of a National Youth Council . 

• Introduce a fund for men to be channeled through the Ministry of Gender or 

Provincial Administration. 

• Increase the resources currently allocated to the kitty for the elderly. 

3.12 Way forward 

The National Budget tells us what the government is committed to doing, as 

opposed to what it says it wants to do or hopes to do. As such we consider our 

participation as both a right and a duty. To achieve this we are proposing the following 

concrete steps: 

1. 

2. 

3. 

4. 

5. 

That the government set aside funding, from next year, to facilitate community 

participation from the village level in the budget process. In addition, the 

current sector hearing process, is inadequate since their structures do not 

allow for genuine participation. In fact by the time the sector hearings are 

being held, key decisions on areas to be funded have already been made and 

specific projects selected. Thus the hearings are just meant to rubber-stamp 

the proposals. 

The Constituency Development Fund (CDF) Act as well as the Local 

Authority Service Delivery Action Plan (LASDAP) Act be amended as a 

matter of priority to provide for people’s direct representation in the decisionmaking 

bodies. 

That representative Ward and Constituency Budget Committees be created 

to act as the vehicle for people’s participation in the budget process and 

open public hearing and accountability sessions be conducted in the people’s 

settlements six months before the budget is written. 

That the budget-making process and final allocation be gender-responsive. 

That money already allocated to development should be utilized as planned, 

and if allocated sums remain unspent at the end of financial year, the 

concerned public officials be prosecuted for economical crimes. 


16 

4.0 PROPOSED LEGAL AND POLICY CHANGES 

We are aware that policies and legislations play a key role in complementing the 

budget. We therefore wish to make the following recommendations: 

1. 

2. 

3. 

4. 

5. 

6. 

7. 

8. 

That the adequate funds be made available to finalize the Constitution. 

That the budget make provision for sufficient funds for the implementation 

of the National Land Policy and the Eviction Guidelines. Policy and law 

making are primary responsibilities of every government and should be 

funded directly from the consolidated funds. 

That the budget make special provision to provide for basic education in the 

poor urban settlements instead of relying on broad budgetary allocation for 

the Ministry of Education. 

That adequate funds be set aside in this year’s budget for the development of 

a National Slum Upgrading Policy. 

That funds be made available to review and implement a new Rent Restriction 

Act to protect residents in the people’s settlements from forced evictions. 

That the National Health Insurance Bill be re-introduced and passed 

immediately to help the low-income communities. 

That money be made available to finance a comprehensive study to look at 

the possibility of introducing a national social security system that would 

cover all vulnerable groups including the elderly, the unemployed and 

people with disabilities. 

That funds be made available to finalize and implement a new National 

Housing Rights law. 

The budget should include special provision for basic education in the poor urban settlements 


17 

5.0 CONCLUSION 

We will be heading to the polls once again to vote for a new constitution, yet 

the post-election crisis is still fresh in our minds. We know that it was an extremely 

challenging period for Kenya. The negative impact on the social, economic and 

political fabric of the nation was immense. If the current economic recovery continues 

Kenya will be a great nation. However, serious commitments have to be made and 

followed through with action. There has to be fundamental shift in how national 

planning and budgeting is done. This is an opportunity for the government of Kenya 

to prove its commitment to the people of this country in the fight against poverty 

by allocating resources to the sectors and areas that are more important and that not 

only spur economic growth, but also directly benefit the majority of the needy. 

The budget is a national issue and is as important as the national elections and 

other national events. We urge all our citizens who have been excluded from this 

process to now begin to get involved so that we can ensure that this exercise is not 

left to a few individuals who do not even understand the interests and needs of the 

ordinary people. We intend to extend our people’s budget committees throughout 

the country so that we can have a budget by the people, for the people and of the 

people! 

God Bless Kenya as we prepare to go for 

the referendum on the proposed constitution. 

A luta continua. 

Kibera residents shifting to the decanting site to pave way for better housing. The government should 

significantly increase resource allocation to sectors that directly benefit the majority of the needy

ORGANIZATIONAL PROFILES 

KUTOKA NETWORK 

The Kutoka Network is a voluntary gathering of Christian teams who minister 

to people living in the various informal settlements. The word “kutoka” is a Swahili 

term which originates from the biblical meaning, “the Exodus”. The network began 

in 2002, when priests, sisters and lay people living and working in parishes linked 

up and started to discuss and share the multiple issues they faced in their daily 

work, both challenges and achievements, in the slum environment. Together we 

look at the problems affecting the people in slums, with the eyes of Gospel. 

Our aim and objective 

The network aims to analyze the reality of the slums, to share experiences, to 

reflect together on the pastoral approach, to plan common initiatives and actions and 

to highlight positive aspects of the reality of the communities living in the informal 

settlements. 

Our hope 

We are particularly inspired by the following passages from the Bible: 

The spirit of the Lord is on me, for He has anointed me to bring the good news to 

the afflicted. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to captives, sight to the blind, to let 

the oppressed go free, to proclaim a year of favour from the Lord. 

(Isaiah 61: 1-2; Luke 4: 18-19) 

The exodus is a common dream, and we believe that: 

“If you want to save someone out of sludge and muck, do not cheat yourself you 

can remain up there and be pleased to lower a helping hand. All the way down you 

must go: inside muck and sludge. There, seize the other, then with strong hands lift 

both of you up into the light.” 

Rabbi Schlomo in Martin Buber’s Tales of the Hasidim TAKE THE PLUNGE!

NAIROBI PEOPLE’S SETTLEMENTS NETWORK 

The Nairobi People’s Settlements Network (NPSN) is an initiative of community 

groups from various people’s settlements within Nairobi (formerly called slums). 

The Network was mooted in October 2005, while planning for the celebrations of 

December 10th, 2005 World Human Rights Day. The Network was adopted on 10th 

December 2005 at St. John’s Catholic Church, Korogocho during the World Human 

Rights Day celebrations. 

Our Vision 

A vibrant just development oriented society 

Aim and objectives 

The main aim of NPSN was and still is to bring together community groups 

engaged in various activities in order to improve effectiveness in the use of available 

resources and to encourage the bottom-up approach to planning through involvement 

of communities in prioritizing their needs. The Network is guided by the following 

objectives: 

• To bring together community groups within the people settlements in and 

outside Nairobi for the purpose of networking on various issues affecting 

them. 

• To identify and bring together partners working within people’s settlements 

in order to develop a holistic approach to the existing problems. 

• To create a forum for lobbying and advocating on matters affecting people 

in the settlements. 

• To facilitate people’s participation in identification, planning, implementation, 

monitoring and evaluation of projects in the settlement.
