• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, as I support this Motion, I wish to say that matters of the youth are no longer just aspirations. They are no longer just wishes. Article 55 of our Constitution actually does recognise the youth - and this is the Bill of Rights - as a very important category of citizens who need special attention by the Government and this particular provision goes ahead to actually mandate the Government to do a number of things to pay special focus on the youth. Any continued neglect of the youth actually amounts to outright violation of our Constitution. ... view
• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: We know very well from statistics that the youth of this country are faced with multiple problems; top of which is unemployment. About 70 per cent of unemployed Kenyans are young people and we still have an education system which is not market- oriented. So, you find that 90 per cent of that 70 per cent of youth who are unemployed actually have some form of education but which is not sufficient to make them marketable or to make them get jobs that they can support themselves with in the job market of this country. view

• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: The other category of youth that actually needs special attention is the pastoralists. We know that majority of the youth of this country are not educated and it is because of lack of an opportunity to get sufficient education to be able to get a formal job. This is a category of youth and I can speak authoritatively for the county I come The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly.

• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: from – Narok County. We have a majority of youth who, although not educated, are very enterprising and are actually contributing to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of this country without any form of support from the Government. Those are examples of pastoralist youth who are involved in cattle trading and farming and they need to be supported to be able to continue to sustain their own livelihoods and those of their families and, indeed, contributing to the economic enhancement of our country. view

• 12 Jun 2013 in National Assembly: Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we know that we have a multiplicity of organisations and agencies who are involved in youth programmes and purporting to be supporting the welfare of the youth in uncoordinated manner, the result of which is no tangible change in the welfare of the youth despite having those multiplicity of organisations and agencies. What the National Youth Council provides is actually a democratic agency driven by the youth. So, it presents an opportunity for the youth to actually drive their own agenda for their own wellbeing and it is the first of its kind in this country. ... view
