    "content": "Thank you. It will be good for us to have our youth empowered and we shall have eliminated one of their survival tactics; which is resorting to crime for survival. It is not by choice that the youth resort to crime but because they lack something to do. The youth is a very active group of people with a lot of energy which, if not properly tapped, shall be wasted in crime. Therefore, I support this Motion knowing very well that this country will only progress if we empower our youth who comprise about 65 per cent of our population. If we neglect this segment of our population we are courting danger. When the youth are hungry, the whole country can go on fire. I support this Motion and urge the Government to take this matter very seriously and empowers the youth. We, hon. Members of Parliament, should not sit back and wait; we must put the Government on toes to make sure that funds are made available to operationalise the NYC thereby empowering them to be relevant in our Government. Thank you. I support this Motion."
