| Summary, etc. |
In the recent past, Kenyans have witnessed various rape cases; that involved men of all ages. It is ironical that most of those involved in these inhuman acts are adult men between 30 to 40 years. These elderly men defile even infants of 1 to 5 years. The magnitude of this problem has gone overboard. There is a horrifying story of murder and rape in our dailies every time we awake. It is happening so often that an average Kenyan is getting used to of this culture of rape. It has however become a normal way of life. Though most of the perpetrators are elderly men, school going children have not been left out either. There are reported cases of boys in upper classes waylaying girls of lower classes on their way home. Further more this menace has not even spared the places of worship. Pastors of some churches have been found guilty of having committed the same with their church members. In addition to this, there are other reported cases of sexual abuse that have been purposely covered up to protect the clergy. This makes our places of worship unsafe especially for female worshippers. This makes women in this country wonder where to seek refuge from sexual abuse. Indeed the society is collectively pervaded by suspicion and mistrust in one another. Some of the victims are even infected with venereal diseases including HIV and AIDS, leaving them not only in emotional anguish but also a death sentence. Many of the survivors have considered suicide, while some have actually taken because they could not bear what they were going through. Considering the above opening there is sufficient prove that something somewhere in our society is seriously wrong. Key elements however, to be investigated include: Finding out the causes of rape, its impact and Intervene measures that would be taken by the church and the government to reduce rape. This information will also assist the church and government policy makers, implementers, members of the community, development agencies and other stakeholders to design effective and efficient network of arresting and bringing to control what has continued to cause critical significant impact on peoples’ livelihoods in community development. This study intends to find the current state barbarity of rape in Kitale, Kenya, and come up with recommendations that are going a long way assisting many Kenyans who are faced with the problem today and the near future. Hence establishing a forum through which the woman, the girl child can exchange information, seek knowledge, demand for services and establish beneficial linkages with institutions outside the community. |
