    "content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, we have spoken about the Uwezo Fund which targets the youth. If you give youth money and then again you do not give them the opportunities, we are not going to achieve results. So, I think this Bill serves to tie up the two strategies and that is the strategy of the Uwezo Fund which is actually giving them the capital needed to perform the business. We are now saying we must give them the big opportunities to be able to do business and be able to repay these funds. We must take affirmative action for our youth and this is the Bill that is going to solve that problem. I like the Mover when he said that even the county governments must be told that they must consider the youth in the contracts they are giving in their counties. I really want to say that we must make it a mandatory requirement that all tenders must comply with this law. I am very confident that this House will pass this law.
