number of years now leave under very scaring security matters. Because it has been that every day that you wake up a
crime has been committed in one corner or the other of this area.
As a result by 1988 this area of Laikipia West was a hive of activities with a lot of money changing hands, because of the
wealth that this area can generate. However because of these incidences that actually do not seem to go . this area has
turned to be one of the poorest are that actually do not seem to go. This area has turned to be one of thepoorest area that
actually one could never have thought it would be. It is then therefore our proposal that the government puts down the
proper mechanism that actually would ensure that people of Laikipia West enjoy maximum peace during the day and even
durig the night. In particular as a school we feel that if actually the government is in a position to provide each and every
educational institution with at least one policeman with a gun. Who should not be very expensive, noting or having it clear
or knowing very well, that ministers or other government officers actually are guarded by two or three policemen,while they
are taking care of the rights of only one individuals. While schools would ctually have population of 300-720 students. That
is a very big community that would require maximum security.
Commissioners I would like also you to note as actually we present this particular point that as a result of the insecurity in
this area, so many of our children are notable to attend schools, because their parents cannot afford the fees. Which actually
at first they were ableto provide, because they are not been able to engage in the proper economic activities. That was
theposition of the school.
Com. Ibrahim Lethome Thank you very much Mr. Ndungu. Please register your presentation.
Mr. Ndung’u: Mr. Commissioner I would like to say that I am the next in the list with my personal presentation.
Com. Ibrahim Lethome You are Ndung’u Kimoye. You want to say that was the schools’.
Mr. Ndung’u : Honorable commissioners this time around my main focus is on the girls child verse the general society in
kenya. It was my feeling that all around from 1963 to present that the government has not taken maximum measures or
taken enough care of the girl child as far as education is concerned. In particular you find that as much as the boy struggles
to actually achieve education. It is more for a girl in particular where the society doesn’t have (inaudible). which the
government should actually see implemented to ensure that the girls child is not misused in whichever way.
I have in mind that the laws of kenya in vokes a girl as a minor under the age of 18 years. but when it comes to restrict the
girls relationship with the general public it is not actually taken care of, as it is in the case of the teacher who handles this
particular girl. It is my proposal that the government should have a framework whereby, (inaudible) let you a be a
policeman, let be a makanga, a farmer or any other person, that you are free to joke with the life of that.
