    "content": "We know that our young people lack jobs. However, from a small experiment done in Migori County, I know that today if our Government decided to provide water and then provide green houses for our young people, we will all go farming and we will produce enough tomatoes, vegetables and flowers and these guys will become rich overnight and they will not be loitering in our streets looking for jobs, which are not forthcoming. Some of our universities like Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology have extensively expanded their agricultural curriculum. We have agri-business people and horticultural technicians. All these people are in the streets of Nairobi looking for jobs. If all our counties could have piped water and other sources of water, those young men and women would not be beggars on the streets of Nairobi; they would be self-employed. I have experimented with it in Migori County using the National Government Affirmative Action Fund (NGAAF) that I get and have seen it work. Those people are excited about those kinds of projects."
