    "content": "and other criminal gangs should come to an end. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, the Chief Whip has challenged us that we must also give solutions. I want to give some solutions. One, it is very clear that brutal force cannot work. Whenever brutal force has been used, these criminal gangs have simply migrated from where they are being chased. Therefore, we have to look for another solution. My solution is first of all to give the youth hope that they are also stakeholders in this country. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, we must channel almost 100 per cent of the Youth Enterprise Development Fund (YEDF) to the constituencies so that the youth can borrow money and use it to start businesses. The money that is taken to intermediary banks is not working. The same should apply to the Women Enterprise Development Fund (WEDF). The amounts must be remitted to the constituencies not banks. Banks are not giving out that money. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Kazi kwa Vijana programme must be taken to the grassroots because that is where the problem is. We must also employ people to clean Nairobi River instead of using machines. We must employ people to eradicate the hyacinth weed from Lake Victoria instead of using machines. I support the Motion."
