"content": "technicalities should not lead to denying any Kenyan their right. Our women have been denied their right to have IDs on technicalities, and I am glad that CID officers are there. To ask a woman in Luoland to produce documents to show that she was married is unfair to the cultural diversity. This is because usually people are married without any documents whatsoever. What exist are human beings who can give testimony that someone is somebody’s wife. Why can we not do what the colonialists used to do; relying on clergymen, elders and chiefs to give evidence that somebody is a citizen of a particular village? In order to get IDs, up to now, women are being told to go back to their homes to fetch their fathers. This is unconstitutional because it is against cultural diversity in this nation. Could the Chairman, who is a lady, take this issue seriously and ensure that our ladies enjoy their constitutional rights?"
