"content": "First, I would implore the county chiefs and their respective county assemblies to prioritise adding more allocations to the Vocational Training Centres (VTCs) that are within counties. This will build up the capacity of young people to be in a position to put money in their pockets by doing some of these locally made initiatives that we are looking for. Secondly, there is the issue of agriculture. It has for a long time been looked at as an area that thrives through senior citizens. In a way to encourage young people and women to venture more into that field and being a devolved function, more allocation needs to go to those sectors so that we pull together. Finally, I saw Governor Kang’ata sharing an idea on how they have collected a lot of money in Murang’a County as own-source revenue. I request our county chiefs to also look at that. In as much as the national Government is sending money to counties, let them beef up their own-source revenue, so that we supplement those efforts collectively and steer this nation forward. Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir."
