We should strengthen various institutions, so that this country can build a one-stop shop for children in every county. This is where we will have a remand for children. If a child is in conflict with the law in Turkana County, he or she becomes a problem to the police and other State organs because they have nowhere to keep him or her. There is no remand for children. Going forward, we need a one-stop shop where we can have a remand in one area and infants care unit. We visited the infant care unit in Kabete. I was shocked to see the number of children who are there; they are many. They are one week or two weeks old who have been abandoned in this country because of the economic hardships that we have. We recommend to have these facilities in every county. They should be in the hands of the Government, so that we do not have the conduits that we have observed."
