The pledge
We left home to change home. Don’t forget the goal….

We, the teachers, farmers and learners of Bungoma, declare:

The 4 rules

What we declare.

Rule 1

Rivers have banks — boundaries must exist

If a river has no banks, it floods the village. If AI has no boundaries, it floods the child. WACHA 8.4V sets the bank — OFF under 10 seconds.

Rule 1: Rivers Have Banks, boundaries must exist. If a river has no banks, it floods the village. If AI has no boundaries, it floods the child. WACHA 8.4V sets the bank, OFF under 10 seconds.
Rule 2

Rockets have abort — OFF-SWITCH27 must exist, <10 sec HALT

Every rocket has an abort button before it flies. Every AI in a classroom must have an OFF before it teaches. Not software. Hardware. The child, the teacher, the parent can press.

Rule 2: Rockets Have Abort. OFF-SWITCH27 must exist, under 10 seconds HALT. Not software, hardware. The child, the teacher, the parent can press.
Rule 3

Every system needs a log — traceability

If no one can tell what the AI did, no one can protect the child. WACHA 8.4V logs OFF presses locally — no cloud, no vendor. The community sees, the county verifies.

Rule 3: Every System Needs A Log, traceability. WACHA 8.4V logs OFF presses locally, no cloud, no vendor. The community sees, the county verifies.
Rule 4 · Rule 4 First

No internet, no problem — WACHA 8.4V works offline

WACHA 8.4V doesn’t secure the cloud. It secures the compound. A physical OFF-switch that halts AI in under 10 seconds — no internet, no cloud, no vendor permission. Pressable by the affected person, the operator, or the local authority. The person in the room decides.

Rule 4 First: No Internet No Problem, WACHA 8.4V works offline. A physical OFF-switch that halts AI in under 10 seconds. Bungoma County P.84 Pilot, 9 sub-counties, one ECDE centre each.
