"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, over half of the population in this country is the youth and three quarters of the youth are unemployed. When you find the youth out there loitering without jobs, they claim that we as Members of Parliament do not assist them get jobs. When you try to explain that the system is the one that has bogged itself with so many other things and forgotten the youth, it becomes very difficult. Some of the entities which are supposed to be employing these people are closing down because of the poor economy. Others cannot expand and so they cannot absorb the youth. The Government itself which is supposed to create structures, infrastructures and open up avenues for job creation such as industries has failed. Therefore, you find that once we train the youth, they are left out there without anything to do. That is why most of our youth are going into drugs and crime. They also engage in things that are against social norms."
