    "content": "The greatest challenge that remains to be fully addressed is that of youth poverty and unemployment. Unless we get more investments to our youth, despite our Vision 2030 and all the other good things that we are talking about, we will be caught up in a revolution in this county, as the youth try to find space. The police and the army will not assist us in that. Let us come up with very credible youth employment programmes to stabilize and protect security in this country on a long term basis. I am proposing that we expand the National Youth Service (NYS) and create an NYS centre in every district in this country. Finally, on the issue of IDPs, I would like to say that we cannot continue to talk about those people forever. It is an embarrassment for us in the Government to continue seeing people in tents for the last two years. The Kshs2 billion that was allocated for that was not enough and we recommend that the Ministry of Finance increases that amount so that we can remove IDPs from tents. We should look for more land and settle those who cannot go back to their original land. We should create peace and security. For example, the Kikuyus should talk to the Kalenjins so that they can continue living as good neighbours in the Rift Valley. With those few remarks, I beg to support."
