    My dad is 77 years and he was not registered when they were registering. He misplaced his ID and by the time he got a replacement the registration had stopped. Beside, people turn 70 every time.

    Is there continuous registration or a person who missed the registration how can they get registered.

    My Grandmother Jesinter Wanjiru Kamau ID. No.4329951 had registered for inua jamii programme and when they were verifying the documents at Karai Chief camp Kikuyu Sub county her name was there but it was found her Id card had a problem with the number as they were sharing the id no with another person. She was adviced to visit the registrar of persons whereby she was issued with a new id where the id number was rectified which was later delivered District Social Development office. She was told to wait but now our worry is that has taken long to rectify and others are benefiting.
