[wanabidii] RE: Massive Voter Registration Drive, Kenyans SHOULD decide their destiny.

Dear Otieno,

 

We salute you for what you are doing ensuring that that Kenyans get registered so that we can elect leaders that believe in transparency and accountability and indeed constitutionality.

 

Yes match on as we intensify the struggle even on the Jamhuri Day

Subject: Massive Voter Registration Drive, Kenyans SHOULD decide their destiny.

 

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.

Friends,

In our continuing mobilization process for the Massive Clean-up and Voter Registration Campaign in Kenya and Nairobi in particular, we are requesting His Excellency the President to announce Friday the 14th December 2012 as a Public Holiday to enable as many Kenyans Register as Voters.

We have had several engagements with many people across Kenya and it seems like time has been of real essence in this process.

We are happy that as many as 9.0 Million Kenyans have registered as Voters as by this evening across the Country and that is encouraging. We are also very happy that the Media have been on top of this and the FM Stations are doing some great work. Let us not leave this to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission alone. Let us make it our responsibility as Kenyans.

A meeting of this morning at IEBC Nairobi with L-R; Ms Milliam Gachihi- Coordinator Mathare, Ms Jane Wasilkwa- Coordinator Kibra, Mr. Peter Muigai- Cordinator Starehe and Mr. Otieno Sungu standing. Odhiambo T Oketch and Ms Bilhah Kiptugen are seated                                                                                                                                                 We will be on Radio Ramogi tomorrow the 12th December 2012 at 8.00am with my Colleague Migosi Otieno Sungu, and we will be inviting Kenyans to come out en mass and make Friday the 14th our D-Day as a People. Then on Thursday the 13th December 2012, I will be on the Citizen Power Breakfast Show at 8.00am where together with Ms Bilhah Kiptugen- the Nairobi IEBC Coordinator, we will be rallying Kenyans for Friday the 14th December 2012. This is our D-Day, and together as a people, we can hit the 18 Million mark and even beyond.

To crown this all, on Thursday the 13th December 2012 at 10am, the Chairman of IEBC Mr. Isaac Hassan, in the company of the CEO IEBC Major James Oswago, the Town Clerk City Council of Nairobi, the PC Nairobi, the CEO Africa Youth Trust Mr. Nahum Okwiya and the Commissioners of IEBC, will give a Media Briefing at the IEBC Headquarters announcing Friday as our D-Day for Voter Registration. We want to invite each one of us to play our part and invite our Friends to Register. 

On Friday the 14th December 2012, Courtesy of Safe and Friendly Cities for All, the UN Habitat, the Unicef, the UN Women, the IEBC, the Provincial Administration, the Africa Youth Trust and The Clean Kenya Campaign, we will host a Massive Clean-up and Voter Registration Campaign in Nairobi and we are inviting as many people as possible to join with us in this goodwill gesture at our Focal Points in Nairobi; Mathare, Eastleigh, Kibera and Mukuru. All the 74 Wards of Nairobi are invited and all leaders are invited to marshal their followers and Friends.

The Main Programme at Mukuru will be Flagged off by the Town Clerk City Council of Nairobi Mr. Tom Patrick Odongo in the presence of the IEBC Chair Mr Isaac Hassan and his entourage.

Lastly, if Nairobi gets it right, the whole Country will get it right. These are the latest figures for Nairobi and Kajiado and we must all re-double our efforts Countrymen and women;
