    "content": "month. They were able to realize that there was another alternative style; healthy styles of living where you wake up early and shine your boot. If you have a situation where the boot does not shine, you cannot stand on the parade and start defending yourself. You will have to make your bed every day. There are young people in this country who do not know how to make a bed or cook; there are young people in this county who do not even know how to boil an egg. There are boys as old as 18 years old who still want to be mummy’s boys and girls. Kenya cannot grow with such people. Our youth should mature. Madam Temporary Speaker, the NYS has existed for a long time and they have got it right. The youth who go through this programme are able within the time they are there to transform themselves emotionally, physically and socially. By the time the passout parade is taking place, some parents are not able to recognize their children because of the transformation. This is a programme that has been tested; we are not re-inventing the wheel. All we need to do is to ensure that adequate resources are put into this programme. As we devolve programmes to the counties, we should try and resolve the challenges the NYS has faced at the national level and correct them. We should give the county the best so that they can do what has been tested. We should get the right level of recruitment into the NYS so that the people who are there are given the right training. The programmes should also focus on specific aspects, for example, agriculture."
