    "content": "I also propose that we amend and operationalize the National Youth Council Act of 2009 to align with the Constitution of Kenya, 2010. For example, the Cabinet Secretaries representing the youth, or the County Executive Committee Members (CECMs) in our county governments representing our youth must be youth. I can assure you the level of disconnect between the national Government and the youth is very wide. That is why you are seeing whatever is happening. I can assure you that the youths; the Gen Zs, who are in the streets are speaking a very different language. If today you put Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale or Sen. Maanzo as the Cabinet Secretary for Sports and Youth Affairs, they will not relate to these Gen Zs. The language they are talking is very different. I can assure you that Sen. Maanzo does not know and does not understand. The other day at the VIP Lounge, Sen. Maanzo was asking me what \"Gota\" means and I took almost 20 minutes explaining to him what \"Gota\" is. Also, Sen. (Dr.) Khalwale, who is our Senate Majority Whip, was asking me what \"Kufinish Kumalo\" is. This is the language that these youths are talking. We, therefore, have to put youth in these Ministries, if not as the Cabinet Secretaries, as the advisors in these Ministries---"
