"content": "Nothing has been done in my constituency, after the election of March, 2013 to date to issue IDs to the people who are eligible. Why is the Government denying Kenyans IDs and passports? What is happening right now is that when you deny people IDs and passports, you are denying them their basic rights. This is because somebody without an ID cannot look for employment, cannot travel and cannot join university. We have Form Four leavers who completed high school but they cannot do anything in their life because they do not have these documents. These people cannot look for jobs, study at the university, travel and open a bank account. Therefore, the Government is basically curtailing their basic rights as enshrined in the Constitution."
