Proud to have participated in the workshop held by @ParanetRight together with @NamatiKenya. With elections approaching, securing a national ID card —the key document proving citizenship for voter registration —ensures every eligible Kenyan can exercise their right to vote.

As Kenya approaches the 2027 electoral cycle, access to documents such as the National ID remains a critical gateway to constitutional participation, democratic inclusion, and the exercise of fundamental civic rights. #myidmyright

On this #IDDay, we are calling for clear, consistent treatment of ID applicants countrywide & legislation amendments to fully remedy harmful practices provided for in law such as ID vetting that are discriminatory & unconstitutional. #MyIDMyRight #IDDay

IDs are a lifeline, yet pastoralists in Wajir are often denied them. This #IDDay, we urge policies to deliver identification and inclusion. Break barriers with us! #MyIDMyRight

[Abdullahi Dekow @adowdekow10]

Pastoralists embody strength, navigating vast lands with pride. On #IDDay, we demand IDs to unlock their rights to healthcare, education, and dignity in Wajir and beyond. Join the fight! #MyIDMyRight

[Abdullahi Dekow @adowdekow10]

without IDs, citizens are treated as aliens in their own homeland.

.Discrimination in ID undermines national unity. #MyIDmyRight

[Abdullahi Dekow @adowdekow10]

denying IDs is not just bureaucracy. It's purely a systematic discrimination ..
