ATWOLI STRONGLY CONDEMNS DEREGISTRATION OF AFRICOG AND KHRC.

 An agitated,canvass  COTU secretary general Francis Atwoli  on Tuesday strongly condemned  the Jubilee government  of  intimidating  Non governmental organisations.

In what he termed as the government  poking  it's  nose into matters that do not concern them, Atwoli openly told  off   President  Kenyatta against  despicable acts.

 ''The NGO's do not report  directly to the government.The civil societies instead help compliment states  in matters governance." said Atwoli.

This follows  after two civil societies Africog and KHRC were  deregistered  by the  NGO commission  Board.The two  are accused of operating  illegally and  breaching the rule of law.

With  many Kenyans  questioning why now? Others have  vent their anger with condemnations on social media. 

 The accusations  which  are viewed as  acts of  shameless  intimidations  against the two NGOs  are said to prop up after  the two non governmental  bodies  reprehended  the IEBC.

They  wanted the public to access  information on matters concerning the just concluded elections.They also raised concerns about the increasing death toll of  demonstrators countywide.

 Speaking to the press in Nairobi an angry Atwoli  known  for his strong stand in fighting for the workers union in Kenya, has warn  the president against  attempts of  dictatorship terming the move  as a set back to democracy.

 "People died in this country  others were teargassed,while i witnessed some being arrested and going to jail   for us to gain our democracy.The president's move is taking us 30 years back and we will not allow that." said Atwoli.

 In what  he calls  free advice to the head of state, Atwoli urges the president to enjoy  his meat slowly.Implying that the  current  Kenyan  generation  is only  eating from a ready-made  hunt.

"let the president not remind us of where we coming from.Men and Women fought  for this countryin order for us to get  our independence  and we only reaping from their sacrifice.''said Francis  Atwoli.

Banging his hands on the table severally,while grinding his teeth and clenching his fist Atwoli dared the president not to provoke the masses with threats.
''the other day ,it was the media now it's NGOS tomorrow it will be workers unions.we will not accept such intimidatations in this country."

He  has called upon the president to up his game and reshape his operations.
Meanwhile  the NGO fight is ongoing,KHRC has promised to seek court's intervention.
Last year however, the High court had ruled in the favor of KHRC  terming the  deregistration  unconstitutional  when the NGO Commission  Board chair Fazul Mohamed raised the same concerns.
