    "content": "A while ago, the Prime Minister mentioned that ID cards are issued to persons who are above the age of 18 years, but the Constitution mentions categorically that every citizen is entitled to a Kenyan Passport and any document of registration. So, the eligibility here is being a citizen. Irrespective of whether one is one year old or one month old or 12 days old or 20 years old, one is entitled to the identification document. Is the Government not in breach of the Constitution? Secondly, in his Statement the Prime Minister said that there are many people who do not have ID cards. I am sure that it is in his knowledge that many Kenyans from the central region, particularly Kiambu County, Murang’a County and other counties were denied ID cards by the former regime. Those people are now 25 years of age and above. What is the Government going to do to make sure that those Kenyans are given ID cards?"
