Today marked a significant step forward in advancing justice and dignity for widows in Siaya County.
Following the submission of our memorandum, “Give to Gain: Investing in Tenure Security for Widows for Economic and Social Security,” the Siaya Widows Network, a #HakiNiYetu grantee, engaged key duty bearers in meaningful conversations aimed at strengthening access to justice and land rights for widows.
At the Siaya Law Courts, the memorandum was formally received by the Court Administrator on behalf of the Head of Station. Our discussions focused on building a collaborative partnership with the Judiciary to enhance civic education and awareness on court processes. This is a critical step toward demystifying legal procedures and ensuring that widows are better equipped to seek and access justice without fear or confusion.
We also presented the memorandum to the County Land Registrar, who affirmed his commitment to supporting widows by ensuring that land-related matters are handled efficiently and within clear timelines. This pledge is particularly important, as many widows continue to face exploitation and, in some cases, lose their property due to limited knowledge and delayed processes.
Our engagement with the Speaker of the County Assembly centered on the implementation of the Siaya County Widows Protection Act (2025). Key discussions highlighted the urgent need for adequate budgetary allocation to operationalize the Act and ensure that its promise translates into real protection and support for widows across the county.

BREAKING NEWS!
Kenol Magistrate's Court has this morning sentenced Woman Human Rights Defender Priscilla Wangui to serve six months in jail or pay a fine of Ksh 50,000 . This follows a judgment on March 17, 2026, finding her guilty of assault (Case No. MCCR/E2301/2023).
Priscilla is not just a name, she is the voice of the Mithiini Community. For years, she has led over 600 landless community members in Makuyu-Kirimeri Ward to reclaim ancestral land and legally challenge the legacy of colonial land alienation. Pricilla’s conviction is not isolated. Several frontline defenders remain in the corridors of justice facing trumped up charges for their advocacy by laying claim to their ancestral land.
While we accept the Court's decision, we are deeply concerned by this verdict which we believe is part of a disturbing and broader pattern of criminalizing human rights defenders.
When grassroots leaders who stand up for the marginalized are targeted with legal battles, it sends a chilling message to anyone fighting for land justice in Kenya. This pattern is worrying and all human rights defenders and friends of human rights defenders must stay vigilant, and stand tall against all forms of targeting and intimidation.
