More Students in Kisumu
East benefit from ID Registrations exercise
The Identity Cards registration exercise in Secondary school
within Kisumu East Constituency have benefitted a number of students as the
exercise comes to a close.
The exercise that has been sponsored by Kisumu East
Parliamentary aspirant on ODM Party Ticket James Aggrey Mwamu has seen a good
number of students now having waiting card for their IDs.
Addressing students of Nyalunya Secondary school within Kisumu
East constituency where about 100 students who have attained the age of 18
years have been registered to obtain the document, Mwamu said they have visited
more than ten secondary schools in Kisumu East Constituency.
He says they have visited Obwolo, Orongo, GP Owiti, Angira, Kassagam,
Okok,Dr Aloo Gumbi, Nyalunya among others.
At Kasagam Secondary school early this week, about 300 students
were registered to have Identity card.
Mwamu further says his team will liaise with the office of the
IEBC to ensure that those students who have been registered to have ID cards
will be also registered as Voters so as to participate in the forthcoming
General election to be held on August 9 this year.
He says the ID card is a
very important document which will allow the students to access services like
getting loans from the Higher Education Loans Board{HELB} among other
Government important services.
He at the same time appealed to the residents of the
Constituency who have not been registered as voters to do so before the
deadline of this second Mass voter registration exercise elapsed on February 6
this year.
Mwamu who is the former President of the East African law
Society has urged the civil servants who wants to vie for political positions
to resign within the deadline set on February 8 this year.
