Answer 1

1. Do not show a stranger the way if he claims to be lost. Instead, tell him to seek help from fellow men and if he insists, run away and scream for help 2. Don't accept lifts or free rides on bikes, motorbikes, cars, or matatus from people you don't know. 3. Be aware of people who come to your school or church claming to have been sent by your parents, yet it is false. 4. Don't accept money, sweet things, and snack food from people you don't know, including shamba boys, Watchmen, or males neighbors. 5. Be careful when you are traveling to or from school, shops, posho mills, and rivers, and don't respond to calls by people you don't know. 6. Don't make a habit of being close with male neighbors and playing with them often. 7. When you are traveling to or from somewhere on foot and notice a man blocking your way, avoid him. If he continues to block you, turn around, run, and scream for help. 8. When you are traveling from school or anywhere else, go home quickly and avoid playing too much along the way. A good child does not loiter. Make sure you are home before it is late. 9. You should always walk in groups. Rapists target young girls who are alone. If you are with a group, you can scream and easily get help. 10. Don't shake hands with men or boys you don't know. They could grab your hand and pull you away. 11. Do not go out at night, even to shops, the posho mill, river, or neighbor's houses. 12. Don't allow men or boys to carry you shoulder-high. 13. Do not bathe naked where people can easily see you, even at home or in the river. When at home, use the bathroom and make sure the door is locked. 14. When you change clothing, make sure no one sees your nakedness. 15. Avoid playing too much with the boys in your school. They should never touch your body, especially your private parts. 16. Men and boys should never touch your private parts intentionally. 17. If a male neighbor sends you to the shop, make sure you ask your mother for permission and when you bring the items back, do not go inside his home. Instead, leave them at the door and go home. 18. If a male visitor comes to your home and you are home alone, do not open the door, even if he is a family friend. Tell him the door is locked and your parents have gone with the key. 19. If a man or boy comes to your home and request water, do not open the door. You can give him water through the window or tell him you don't have any. 20.
