As Kenyans troop back to urban centres from their annual migration to rural areas where they religiously celebrate the festive season, it is fair and just to pay tribute to the great work of non-governmental organisations (NGOs) which literally sustain life and provide livelihoods to thousands of indigent Kenyans, especially in the marginalised regions of our country.
Kenyans living in arid and semi-arid areas readily affirm that international NGOs and faith-based charity organisations constitute the only government they know except, of course, during the electioneering period when they are made to feel that they also count as Kenyans.
