    "content": "have a voice within the Government. The President spelt out very serious measures. He acknowledged the fact that more than 70 per cent of our young people are not employed. This unemployment affects us all because it becomes a course of insecurity and various other ills in society. I would like to applaud the President for the 30 per cent quota that he has put in as a policy, so that young people can actually get an opportunity to do business. I would also like to applaud him for streamlining the Youth Enterprise Development Fund and the Women Enterprise Development Fund because in the past, many young people did not get those funds, and those who got them were not equipped. We must have a training component to that fund. We must have business incubations and mentorship programmes within the counties, where people receive those funds. I am glad that the President has used a model akin to the Constituencies Development Fund (CDF). We must get it clear, the funds are not going to go through the CDF, but it is a model that is close to the CDF, given that the funds will go through the constituencies."
