There are only 4 days to go before the voter registration ends. About 9 million had registered by yesterday. The target is18 million.
We must bring out every eligible voter to come out, register within the remaining days and also cast his/her vote in March 4th 2013. This election is not like any other, we are putting into place a devolved system that will change lives. County governments will be crucial to development as resources trickle to the counties to create jobs, opportunities and improve infrastructure at local levels.We must put into leadership those able to manage this system.
This morning, Oto and myself were at Radio Ramogi to encourage voters to come out and register, we have given this message to other FM stations and we are happy that Kiss FM, Classic FM, Radio Umoja, Radio Waumini among others are driving the same message.
tomorrow, we will be on Citizen TV breakfast show to encourage Kenyans to come out and register as voters and vote leaders of their choice come March 4th.
On Friday the 14th December 2012, we will be whipping out voters through an environmental cleanup exercise in 4 focal areas in Nairobi to come out and register during the exercise. The focal points are Mathare, Kibra, Eastleigh and Mukuru but we are encouraging all our networks across Nairobi and Kenya to mobilize their residents to register as voters.
We appreciate Africa Youth Trust and her partners( UN Women, UN-Habitat and Unicef) for facilitating us to undertake this initiative. We also appreciate the commitment IEBC has shown in going out of its way to work with interest groups to ensure we reach the targeted number of eligible voters.
We must all remember that IEBC only manages the process and avails the infrastructure for us to exercise our democratic right. However, doing so is one's own volition for which we cannot begin playing blame games, we must just come out and register and again come out and vote in March.
The Clean Kenya Campaign-TCKC calls upon all Kenyans to come out in large numbers from today through Tuesday next week and register before the process ends.
This is the only way we can take into our hands our destiny and shape it.
