  • 17 May 2022 in National Assembly: The amendment on sub clause 2 (a) has already been done by the Committee. I am suggesting this because I have dealt with many cases where parents or guardians are presumed that they have abandoned the child.

I know of a case that involves a Member of Parliament right now. The court gave custody order to the father. He took off with the child immediately. To date, the child has not been accessed. Giving somebody a little sum of Kshs500,000 is like a joke. People should know that it should be punitive. Let it The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information ... view
  • 17 May 2022 in National Assembly: move to Kshs2 million. It still gives the magistrate latitude because it is the maximum but not the minimum. view
