The government of Kenya says it is committed to ensuring protection for Kenyan kids from all types of violence. However, it has become quite difficult to put the words in action. If you walk in major cities of this nation, like Nairobi, Nakuru, Mombasa and Eldoret, you will observe that children are still undergoing physical and emotional violence.
Research shows that quite a number of children in Kenya face social hardships; many are constantly being subjected to emotional and physical torture and sexual assaults. Such assaults usually lead to eruption of short and long-term effects. Usually, the short term and long term results of such violence as sexual assaults and emotional and physical exploitations lead to severe consequences not only to the victims but also to the society as a whole.
Three years ago the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Development carried out a national survey on the evils against children and young population. This would make it possible to establish an effective program and resource allocation towards combating violence and evils against the children in the country. It was the most exhaustive, comprehensive and up-to date survey conducted on issues relating to sexual, emotional and physical torture.
Physical and emotional violence is catastrophic and has many disadvantages attached to it. Most children, whether male or female, have suffered emotional and physical violence in the hands of their parents through kicks, whips and unnecessary blows. These youngsters grow knowing nothing other than the negative sides of life and there is therefore a need to control these situations else, the future for the country is at stake.
Many kids have experienced an overlap of sexual assaults, physical and emotional torture. Such violence results to more dangers such as anxiety and the fear that nothing about life seem good and in that sense, a child grows not knowing the existence of good people. Each young male or female in the country go through either one or all forms of challenges mentioned herein.
The females who experienced sexual assaults at one point in their lives reported feelings of anxiety, uncertainties about life, feelings of depressions and fear. In addition to that, they reflected poor health and lacked a taste and the meaning of life. In most cases, most of them ended up hating themselves and saw no value in themselves.
It looks like Kenya is a state where a strong society is yet to exist. The government has to work around the clock to create a society where men, women and children not only have but also enjoy equal rights, quality of life and opportunities that rise on a daily basis. This, however, will never be realized, unless the Kenyan people themselves understand the wisdom of their ancestors that the children are the hope for the future.
Because children are the hope for the future for this country, the government has to put effective measure in place to help protect children from any form of violence. Kenyan kids are special living beings and they should not be ignored. They are not baboons in the jungle.
