How To file For Child Support in Kenya: What the Kenyan Law Says

 Courtesy of kenyayote.com 

How To file For Child Support in Kenya: Child support, also known as child maintenance, is court ordered payments that go towards the upkeep of a child. Child support is usually paid by the non-custodial parent. Here is a look at some of the principles behind getting child support in Kenya. 

How To file For Child Support in Kenya: Child support, also known as child maintenance, is court ordered payments that go towards the upkeep of a child. Child support is usually paid by the non-custodial parent. Here is a look at some of the principles behind getting child support in Kenya.

According to the Kenyan constitution, Article 53, a child has the right to receive parental care and protection. This includes equal responsibility for the father and mother to provide for their child regardless of whether they are married or not. Some of the organizations that can help you file for child support include: the National Legal Aid Programme (NALEAP), The Federation of Women Lawyers (FIDA), and CLEAR, an initiative of the Kenya Christian Lawyers Fellowship.

Any parent, custodian, or guardian of a child can file for child support. The following are some of the considerations that the court will make before granting an order for child support:

• The financial needs, responsibilities, or obligations of each party
• The earning capacity or income, property, or financial resources of each party
• The child’s circumstances and their financial needs
• The child’s training or education
• Any mental or physical disabilities, medical conditions, or illnesses of the child
• The religion, custom, and practices of the parties
• The liability of other persons to support the child e.g. the liability of the stepparent or guardian

The process of filing for child support starts with hiring a lawyer. A lawyer will draft a letter to the party who is meant to pay child support. This approach is used to avoid the long court process. Both parents will then sit down, in the presence of their lawyers, to draft a parental responsibility agreement. This agreement is binding on both parties. After all the issues on child maintenance have been settled, the lawyer will register the agreement in court and it will act as a court order.

Alternatively, if the party who is required to pay child support resists a parental responsibility agreement, you could move to court and file a case for child support. The court will consider what is in the best interest of the child and look at all the above mentioned factors before granting an order for child maintenance.

Kenyan High Court stops The University of Nairobi from implementing planned reforms

Courtesy of Citizen Digital

The High Court has stopped the University of Nairobi (UoN) from implementing planned reforms pending hearing and determination of a case filed by the Universities Academic Staff Union (UASU).

UASU accused the UoN administration of developing the reforms without the input of key stakeholders such as the students’ association, the Commission for University Education, the Public Service Commission and the Ministry of Education.

The union, in a petition filed through lawyer Koceyo Titus, argued that the new structure is not anchored in law and has led to loss of jobs by UASU members as well as loss of courses in complete disregard to the students.

“…the Petitioner is a necessary key stakeholder on matters that touch on administration of public universities as it directly affects the services rendered by its members and the terms of service of its members,” read court papers.

“…the Respondent willfully failed to give policy guidance to the Vice Chancellor of the 1st Respondent so much that the intended reforms have no policy framework nor transitional guidelines from the current governance structure which has caused anxiety, disquiet and confusion in the university.”

Lady Justice Maureen Onyango, in her ruling, set the matter for hearing on July 28, 2021, adding that: “In the meantime, conservatory orders are granted pending Inter parties hearing of the application.”

Education Cabinet Secretary Prof. George Magoha recently suspended the proposed administrative changes in the University of Nairobi saying the changes must follow the law.

While lauding the move by various universities to ensure their academic and administrative structures conform to their financial muscle, Prof. Magoha termed the proposed changes at UoN illegal.

The changes by the university council touched on reorganisation of the administrative structure, which included abolishing 24 constituent colleges from the normal 35 to 11.

The changes meant to also abolish five offices of the deputy vice-chancellors and replace it with two positions of associate vice chancellors.
