    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I want to inform the Assistant Minister that Article 55 of the Constitution states that the youth are entitled to employment like any other Kenyan. Again, going to the qualifications of representatives in the Legislature, the Constitution talks about people who have integrity and who are registered voters. If Members of the County Assemblies, the National Assembly and the Senate are people who qualify because they have been vetted and have passed the integrity test as provided under Chapter Six of the Constitution, then it implies that in order for one to be an assistant chief or chief, which is a system being reviewed in the next five years, one should be even more advantaged than a Member of a County Assembly or a Member of the National Assembly, in terms of basic access to leadership position. Therefore, I want to inform the Assistant Minister that my Ministry intends to vigorously, passionately and compassionately support the initiatives they want to put in place, so that the youth, who are the dot.com.net generation aged between 18 and 35 years, are wholly entitled to their constitutional rights envisaged and provided for in the Constitution that we passed."
