12TH JULY 2002 - ConstitutionNet

involved in a democratic like allowing people like women, disadvantaged groups to participate in politics. They are also
involved in setting out priorities and speaking out on issues of national concern. They are also involved in the protection of
Human Rights and advocating Government policy and more so legislative changes which are compatible to society. I wish to
highlight the following. This civil society organization whatever they are doing or activities should be entrenched in the
Constitution. The State should conduct an audit of all these organizations and supervise their operations by the law of service.
There are some similar organizations who operate in this country under the pretext of Ngo’s and they also chip in to do some
shady deals on the pretext that they working for the Government. Let me highlight the [?] Certain organizations have taken
advantage if these Ngo’s to start devil worship and cults in the country...
Com. Abubakar : Unataka je?
Mr. Joseph Kibet Siele : They should be monitored and closely and their activities made public.
Com. Abubakar : Sawa.
Mr. Joseph Kibet Siele : The role of women in vulnerable groups and other people who are disadvantaged they should
be protected by the State vis-à-vis their status. Homes should be set up for these displaced the widows the [?] the disabled,
the orphans. [?] and the mentally sick. Rehabilitated should not be set up for them. the Government should start a fund in a bid
to employ these people employ They should also be recognised as part of human beings. They should also be engaged in
income generating projects which are which are very viable. And lastly as I have told you the Women’s activities should
entrenched in the Constitution and an office or Ministry should be set up for them. Thank you and welcome.
