    "content": "A 20-year old is basically somebody who is in first year in the university. These are the categories of individuals that we want to produce. In my constituency, last year, I witnessed cases of suicide. In many areas, they are not reported, but they were not one, two, three or five. I know of one which included a very brilliant university student. The avalanche of alcohol and other drugs aggravate the mental capacities for one to endure and to be patient, tolerant and have even optimism. The effect on education is very negative, where we have domination of alcohol sources nearer to schools than even churches. So, it is easier to walk to a pub in many parts of Central Kenya than a school, dispensary or a place of worship. The productivity needs no gainsaying; it is reduced. If the workforce is reduced and this is a generation that we are saying constitutes 75 per cent including children, if people who have the physical capacity and technical knowhow are reduced to zombies, then it is worrying for this country."
